Kick ass vid! I was flying around a bif fire a few years back getting some pictures for my cousin of a fire that was burning real close to his cabin. I got a few good shots of these guys dropping water on the fire. CRAZY SOBs flying up box canyons dropping loads and doing chandels to get out. pretty damn impressive sight up close watching these guys work. They have my utmost respect for flying on the edge the way they do.

Great video! Pretty impressive teamwork to operate the Ducks. I was on a fire in '07 outa Seeley Lake, MT and they had a pair of the CL-215s supporting our dozer line. It was pretty impressive, hard to keep focused on the fire and not the airshow!!
