Good morning!
I'm a fan of the heavy helicopters. I loved flying the Aircrane on MSFS. So I would love to see it in FGFS! Unfortunately I'm very new to FGFS. Also I'm not a 3d modeler or even graphics specialist. Even worse: I don't even have knowledge of creating aircraft for FGFS in any way. So I hope that anyone will some time provide some work on this great machine called S-64 Aircrane.
As a little bit of help, Erickson offers some drawings and photos for modelers. You can find them here:

This helicopter contains quite a lot room for additional extensions of the general model for the future. There are versions using a tank, which can be filled in air with up to 2500 gallons of water for firefighting. This was made for MSFS as well as some weights like logs, a tank and an electrical tower. I don't know if this is possible with FGFS though.
I'm afraid I can just ask for someone to do this machine without being able to provide any help in the creation itself. I would like to write some documentation or anything else I could do though!
Kind regards,

Addition: I found a Google Sketchup model of this machine:

I don't know, which kind of license WilliamT used for this, though..
