In France, they typically come from either the French Air & Space Force, or the Navy, and I believe that they must have logged in a minimum of 3000 flight hours and 12 years of experience before applying. Also, their average start salary is around €2200/month (gross). That's less than 30k per year for a maximum of 8h/day of work in the peak season... and a maximum of risks, day in, day out!

      There is something called "ground effect" when you fly close to the ground or the water. The plane stabilizes itself because the air kind of gets compressed under the wings. I copy a small part of the wikipedia article:
      "For fixed-wing aircraft, ground effect is the reduced aerodynamic drag that an aircraft's wings generate when they are close to a fixed surface.[1] When landing, ground effect can give the pilot the feeling that the aircraft is "floating". When taking off, ground effect may temporarily reduce the stall speed. The pilot can then fly just above the runway while the aircraft accelerates in ground effect until a safe climb speed is reached.[2]"
      Don't get me wrong those pilots are pretty skillfull but physic helps while flying close above the ground.
      Here is a presentation from a glider pilot about ground effect.

    2) How skilled those pilots have to be to land at speed, continue at speed, and take off again, at speed (and heavier) without crashing.
    3) You can tell their now full of water because of how more 'gentle' they are with the aircraft after taking off again.
    They practically dive-bombed the beach to fill up, but after getting full of sloshing liquid, they have the skill to be 'easy on the stick' to keep their sloshing loads from over-balancing their aircraft.

      There's probably very few that remain anywhere near the surface of the water simply due to the sound from the planes coming scaring them off.

    That has been going on in Montana this summer, trying to put out fires. The planes and helicopters were filling up with water at our reservoir. I'm sure many other places have needed this too.

    Fantastic pilot skill to handle the aircraft to stay on course and at speed as it fills with water and takes on massive extra weight which would create lots of drag.

    Very nicely done, you let three planes pass and only followed the fourth and last when it went by. Nothing missed.
