My 30 years as a wildfire crew, air tractor ariel fire bombers have proven a essential asset in fire supression and life saving for ground crews in the event of a burnover incident. These pilots are hero's and dont get the reconition they deserve, they have saved my bacon and other freinds countless times.
Thankyou to all the areil fire fighting organisations, engineers, ground crews and pilots for their commitment and watching over fire crews, I will always make room for them at my table.
Came here to understand better. We had a tragedy in Portugal, where brave pilot Andre Santos died fighting a fire in one of these fire bosses. Looks extremely challenging, great video. My condolences to the portuguese family of Andre. Keep safe, brave pilots.
I've seen a few aerial firefighting videos and this is easily the best one I've seen for a simple explanation of what they do and how they do it. Well done.
Thank you for help in Czech Republic 🇨🇿🇸🇪🙏
10/10 on this production. Awesome
You guys are truly heroes. Mad respect.
As an agricultural spraying pilot, I would love to perform aerial firefighting.
Congratulations to the team.
FLY SAFE!
given the future of climate change it is a strong possibility
youre on the right track by far
Firefighters and pilots! Amazing

Awesome video! I fly a scale model radio controlled fireboss 502
Well presented!
These airplanes are awesome!
(Air Tractor AT-802F.)
Awesome video! I'm hoping to start flying the FireBoss next summer. I did 2 seasons on the CL-415 a long time ago. Do you mind if I ask you what model of helmet you are using in the video?
Great presentation
This is just like fighting the firefighters are the soldiers, the fire is the enemy and the planes are arial support.
Also my idea
Espetacular esse trabalho, grande profissional 🛩️🇧🇷
That plane reminds me of fire fighter dusty from planes: fire and rescue, it was my childhood
Muito bom o trabalho de vocês. Excelente.
Very instructive! ✈️🔥
Спасибо вам уважаемый! Очень интересно, познавательно! Ваша работа очень важна, техника надёжна, знания и спокойствие на высшем уровне!
Great video!
Já vi o que queria. Muito bom a capacidade, e tem boa cobertura. Todos os países deveriam ter esse tipo de aparelho. Bom, barato, econômico, útil e eficaz.
Waitting for you in Czech republic today in Hrensko fire 👍🙏
Excellent article. However, you did not mention the possibility of using environmentally friendly foam as a fire suppression enhancer. Otherwise, an excellent plane. It allows for a quick response to the outbreak of fires. I enjoy flying it👍💪
Boa tarde sr Éder Navacerrada. Uma curiosidade. Quantos litros esse avião despeja.
Magnifica presentación y explicación,
It works well
Amazing 🙂
Why 2 pilots ? What second pilot does?
First training and second observing and coordinate with the rest of the (ground ) team that machine has 1600 horsepower it's like training pilots for fighter jet pilots.
Compro o projeto e a tecnologia para o governo do Brasil para a saab do Brasil
we need naval gripen for Brazil.
Buenísimo !!!
What is the name if the next swedish and brittish fighter jet?
Swedish next fighter (after 39E) is not known. Saab has a tech cooperation with BAE(?) on the British project "Tempest".
How/why is Saab involved, as they are flying Air Tractor's (made in USA, btw) and not Saab aircraft?
Saab has set up an aerial fire fighting operation, complete with aircraft, pilots and maintenance organisation and won a tender from the Swedish civil contingencies agency to supply aerial fire fighting services for the upcoming years.
@@jorgenericsson1098 Thank You! Saab is a great company, and it's good to see the company is stepping up to help its country (Sweden) during its big forest fire seasons.
Here in the US it is very, very rare for a major defense contractor (e.g. Boeing or Lockheed-Martin) to do any work outside their normal everyday "box", and then it 99/100 times is to work on other governmental contracts that are almost always defense related in some fashion.
@@macsdaddy3383 The firefighting airplane operation is outside of most "boxes" in Sweden. There is paperwork to be an aircraft operator, delivering services to the state has its own requirements and everything had to be on a tight schedule. SAAB had the paperwork in place already and are used to deliver to the Swedish government. So SAAB's box was basically the best fit available. I assume that they then contacted the whole package (aircraft, pilots and maybe maintenance crew) from some other company.
@@ViktorBengtsson You are correct in that there is a lot of paperwork involved in government contracts, and that our experience in bidding for them was an advantage. We have however not contracted anything from an external source but built up the operation from scratch using the pilots and organisation from our target towing business, bought the planes and hired experienced professionals such as Eder to quickly reach operational status.
@@jorgenericsson1098 Smart utilizing a ready reasource such as the target towing business, as I presume that business have fair amount of "down time"?
Kinda wierd to see Saab talk about firefighting and using Airtractors/fire bosses. They should tank an old 340 or 2000!
Like reinventing the wheel? I know what you mean but I guess they did their homework
No autopilot?
During action I guess.
