Training air attacks or ASMs are using the 6XX numbering as well?

The ASM is Charlie 5 (C5) out of MCC which is a CAL FIRE ASM. The only trainee Air Attack being used by CF that is not an EU or CWN is A658; which is a king air. The other ones are EU/CWN.

Helicopter N229HT is H-516 off of the Eldorado. So 516 not 520.

Not to overload this thread with camera screenshots, but it’s putting up a very nice pyrocumulus now.
