The CL 415 was working a fire in the mill yard which is within the city limits. Spectators about 200 yards from the drop along a city street. These guys are good and what a rush they must get being in that big yellow office. Bob  Sorry that does not look too good. This might be better.  |

Thanks guys. You don't get to see them working up close and personal too often but that is a good thing.

Dave
Yes I do have more shots but they are of the planes dumping. I did not pull back and get an overall shot or two. You can see where my interest was. I can post some in a month or so when we get home again.
Bob

Bob,
Exceptional photo of a most unusual looking airplane.
What equipment did you use?

Dave Finally got around to doing a few others. I should redo the first one too as the yellow is too dark. Bob   In this last one you may be able to see the bird dog airplane in the background. He is the boss telling the bombers how and where to put their loads.  |

Bob, thanks. I had missed them. I was away when you posted them and thought I had looked at all the threads that had been updated. (I see there are some others I hadn't found as well.)
Superb series of photos.
