Thank God for those pilots. This state is in need of qualified heroes and these men are them. You wont hear them on tv patting themselves on the back neither.
I frequently here Politician's and Public Officials always thanking this person and that person while I'm saying to myself "Get on with the show for God's sake."
Even if they did brag, I would give them a pass.
I hope those firefighters are staying safe as they can.
They are as much as they can
My family and I live on the desert side of Janesville. We’ve been watching all the aircraft come and go for the last couple of days, and we are so grateful! Thank you to everyone on the ground and in the air for fighting these fires.
Your welcome
Thank you very much for this footage. It's nice too see aircraft helping out. Now that it is safer to do so.
tears of joy and greatfulness toward the pilots helping people. my godmoms house is 10 miles from the fire... tears
Yes I hope hers made it , and you being lose to this area, you should get on board with me and start a campaign for a law that make the politicians and government officials and policeman sheriffs , fire departments to be able to send air drops 💦 day or night as soon as the first sign 🪧 of smoke , with in the first 30 minutes there should of all ready been air drops, I can tell you for sure if they had sent air drops the at first it wuold not of been this bad, it’s not about money 💰 it’s about timing ⏱, come tell everyone, to shot up and make a first smoke send air drop law, BigAl California the Kennedy air drop fire bill, oh yeah , thanks BigAl California.praise Jesus grace Christ amen 🙏 BigAl. No electric wires should of ever been above ground, and if they are they should of had shields around them , wood spreaders weights or I will be making them put closer to each other poles less saggy lines ,so they will not touch each other in the wind, come on they spark like a welder when they get together, love ya thanks BigAl California, praise Jesus grace Christ amen 🙏 BigAl.
Prayers. ..and kudos to the brave men and women...and prisoners who are fighting these fires.
Those skycranes are an incredible piece of kit to have.
Those Pilots are a rare breed of pilot
they are at very low altitudes and dealing air temperature and heavy loads in very dangerous situations . They deserve far more credit than they actually get . 👍👍👍👍👍👍😎👏👏👏👏👏
Wow! Single Engine Air Tankers (SEATS) are a rare sight in California. Nice catch!
think that was an air tractor
Great catches of the aircraft though!
Great footage, great job man! Happy ending with the deer 🦌
Looked like B131 from Coulson and an Erickson sky crane.
Good thing this Country has the equipment to fight these fires and the experienced people as well.
Brave Aircrew and Ground Support men and women
Thank you pilots,🙂🙂🙂🙂🙂🙂🙂🙂🙂🙂🙂🙂🙂🙂🙂🙂🙂🙂🙂🙂🙂
Thank god these courageous pilots have been safe so far, if any have gone down I’m unaware. Keep safe.
Hi great video however I do have a question about the retardant my understanding is fairly corrosives and requires washing out the tank in the belly of the aircraft at the end of the day.
I noticed there were no CL-415s or 515s, Built by Canadair Bombardier (Super Scoopers) These are the go-to fire planes around the world and only need a lake, a river, or Ocean to fill up in 30 or 40 seconds. They're High production, non-stop water bombers that can really make a difference especially when you compare them to the small planes and helicopters-they are of little value, except maybe for optics. The Erikkson works well though. We have fleets of Bombardiers in Canada and around the world, especially Europe. Having to land to fill up severely limits a water bomber's production rate.

At this rate the Dixie Fire could make its way well into Nevada.
No
Ain't anything that burns on the eastern side of the Sierra's , just sage brush and tumbleweeds .
There should be a large enough break; however, I've seen burned debris fall over 10 miles away from this fire.
Always seems to be tragic in California. It's time to think about making adjustments based on the fact it's an arid landscape.
Exactly what kind of adjustments are you talking about ?
Hopefully this is Man's chance to get an upper hand high desert less Forest...fight hard!
How’s it going up there? My mom lives there and hasn’t answered my calls today! Super worried
omg that must be terrifying
Praying...
Who is your mom? I'm the last house on Lupine.

Married to the logger, toad ,super nice guy short and stout bald fella.
there ha one thing that nobody try.....VACUM BOMBS!!!....
Very high pressure water bombs, which will slide just like MOAB glides. These bombs also glide from the Hercules plane.
How Devastating to our state, Believing for Gods intervention 🙏🏼
true....tears of sadness for my beautiful home state
Wow
All of this seems to have Zero effect on this fire. 700,000 acres?
Are those vultures hawks or eagles @7:29?
It would be nice to have some commentary to know where these drops were done
🚁💦🔥
Drops were done on the fire, hth :)
395 East close to Susanville
Janesville, CA. It's on CA HWY 395, about 10 miles south of Susanville, CA.
They are doing the best they can
dixie has burned clear across the sierra nevada mtns, thats a bit far hs!
700 thousand acres.
Am going to be a forest firefighter when am older
No Amphibious Water Bombers even with Honey Lake right there eh!
There might be Canadairs around
you can smell the unburnt Pine and the fire smoke
That must smell amazing.
The Dixie fire has 1,000 square miles
They can do more. They can definitely do better.
You go help instead of being so critical. The firefighters are doing thier best.
With all the military aircraft sitting around why aren’t we using them to fight these fires it couldn’t be that hard to convert them sometimes I think civilian fire crews are making so much money they don’t want to put these fires out if you can dodge bull it’s you can fight fires
The president has to order the military to do so. He hasn't done so. The military can not act on thier own.
at least the deer made it out.
Yeah ok
Have the 747 drop a few water ,oats to slow the fire down!
Im in the smoke of this fire.all the plains fly over my house to land.
I'm the last house on that road and I heard it's kicked back up again and getting worse.
SEE THE PAIR OF EAGLES STARTING AT 7:25!! IM IN BUTTE COUNTY AND 5 WERE CIRCLING THE HOUSE IN TOWN COUPLE DAYS AGO....
@Erok Magnag immature Bald Eagles... going by wingspan...Ummm that's actually the beginning of Golden Eagle territory... from there due East.. yeah!
There's a lot of misplaced Eagles right now...I do Eagle Art...I was judging by full wing shape in the video... just saying...👍✌️
@Erok Magnag Every evening there's a Great Blue Heron that glides over the river about a foot off the surface...he's got a huge wingspan! ..we both caught the wing outline...No kidding bald Eagles congregate...I was gathering wood here in town and I looked up .. and counted 4 big birds directly above my head and as the thought went through my mind.. are those ......
One of them stretched out it's talons as to say... YEAH... we're Eagles! Really cool
@Erok Magnag Back from the Brink! ....YES!...
Back from the Brink....is the title of my best Eagle Art!✌️🙏👍
Unskilled laborers my ass you guys need new representatives.
Could have been good at about 4 minutes
There is a lot of fantasy and fake news about these fires. The red "retardant" makes for spectacular news footage, but it doesn't do anything except pollute the groundwater. A strong wind will send firebrands right over whatever you spray. There is too much fuel and when the wind is blowing, you'll never put the fire out. In fact, "firefighters" today "fight" fires by starting a new fire so they can burn the forest before the real fire gets there! The best thing to do is get everybody out and let the fire burn. When you come back, there will be no more fuel, and therefore no more fire. No more danger. You're done!
Ohh boy, you're so smart 🤓
be cool and helpful if someone could take a military Hercules air plane and make it into a water bomber so it could drop off bigger payloads of water or other stuff to fight forest fires the bigger load the lest chance the fire has against more water The Hercules cares heavy loads anyway
C-130s (Hercs) are being used, provided by the AF on alot of fires state wide
The tanker in the video is a Hercules
The National Guard has 8 C -130's that are designated as MAFFS (Modular Airborne Fire Fighting Systems). The MAFFS are slide in units supplied by the Forest Service and hold 3000 gallons. Also Cal Fire has a few C-130's
and there are numerous private companies that fly C-130's
😠😭😢😪💔🙏
🌧👩🚒👏🍻💪
Have the dems blamed it on Trump yet?
I had to laugh at this. But yeah I'm waiting on that too.
THEY WOULD NOT HAVE THESE FIRE PROBLEM'S IF THEY WOULD HAVE LISTENED TO PRESIDENT TRUMP.

Pour it thick so nothing ever grows there again.
I guess you dont understand what the red stuff is! Phos-check is 85% water, 10% Fertilizer, and 5 percent red coloring.
It actually will let invasive species grow back quicker for the next fire. The fertilizer is a double edged sword.
