[edit] S-64 civil split

I have split the information on the civil version of the S-64 from the CH-54 Tarhe page to the "Erickson S-64" page, which I then renamed S-64 Skycrane. The Erickson article was very skimpy in its coverage. I felt it would be better to cover the civil versions of the S-64 on one page than to have them split between two pages. I have also created the "Erickson Air-Crane" article to cover the company itself, tho at this point it is mostly a copy of the "Erickson S-64" page from before the merger. All 3 articles still need reworking and expansion, especially the company page. - BillCJ 19:40, 3 April 2007 (UTC)

Thanks, Katr! Good clean-up. - BillCJ 02:24, 4 April 2007 (UTC)

You're welcome, just wanted to make the connection to Oregon clear. It makes me want to go work on a fire crew again, though I don't think I ever saw one of these in action. Katr67 16:48, 4 April 2007 (UTC)

No problem. You sure found it fast, considering it was just created a few hours before! My folks are from the Pac-NW (Vanc WA area), so I appreciate the effort on Oregon's behalf. - BillCJ 17:17, 4 April 2007 (UTC)
