Kanıma dokunuyor, gerçekten kanıma dokunuyor. Diyanetin bir yıllık bütçesiyle yaklaşık 100 adet Cl415, daha da acısı Ekrem İmamoğlu’na yakılan para ile 1200 adet Cl415 alınabilirdi… etimle kemiğimle iğreniyorum.

That's a Canadair CL415. They're in use in Greece, France, Spain, Italy, Turkey and about a half dozen more countries. We make good kit.

Du jamais vu. Des CL415 déployés depuis le sud de la France sur la Seine pour lutter contre l’incendie qui ravage la très belle forêt de Fontainebleau au sud de Paris.

I am glad the pilot is safe.
According to the article 3 of Ontario's CL415 water bombers are grounded because we don't have enough people to operate them.
This is a direct result of Doug Ford cutting $42 million from wildfire response.

1/2025 Canada sent 250 firefighters
2 CL415 super scooper firefighting planes, 3 Helicopter water bombers to California!
They also help Washington state! Just last month they sent one over the border to put out a fire!
Trump’s Ignorance and his Cabinet of Losers are actively harming the USA!

PBY Canso at Gander c. 1967. Converted into a water bomber, provided the 1st aerial forest fire protection in NL. The Cansos were later replaced by the Canadair CL215 & CL415. The water bomber fleet is stationed & maintained out of Gander.

A pretty common thing in BC - glad they’re entertained by our amphibious “fire bomber” aircraft CL415 which have PW100 engines (talking my old stomping grounds now 😉) ✈️🤣

Makes sense hah
I imagine it’s hard to beat the cl415’s capabilities
I agree tho, neat idea
Have you seen ww2 aircraft used as fire bombers? Like a26 invader, TBM avenger, and four engine bombers ? Interesting vibe

1. 6.000 kg of water every drop for a CL415.
2. "weigth" of the drop is important for effect.
3. fires create strongs winds, drones dont like them.
4. where will you put your pilot for (4k/8 =) 500 drones? refueling stations ? meccanist?

Although the topic is a bit sad - forst fires in Croatia, the footage of the Flying water bombers is pretty neat, film wise.
Although it's probably shot with a mobile camera, by an amateur it turned out quite great
