I think there must be a better way in Oz than what we have at the moment. The helitacs over here in the west tend to be pretty precise but lack the volume.
With the 747 tanker, wouldn't that quantity of water falling from the sky flatten everything below it... Including the houses it is meant to be saving?
It's great for an instant rainstorm. I assume the 747 in the USA is used to fight the fire in the forrested areas before the fire reaches any house.
The video was good, I thought there would be a greater pitch change with that much water going out the belly.
Volga Dnper have a few AN-124's floating around somewhere that are used for fire fighting from memory. Surely that would hold more than a 747-100?
WilliamOK - Thats one of the poorest comments I have heard on here.
