Conair does a great job, those people work non-stop during fire season.

They didn't fly very much the past two years, but 2021 is crazy busy.

Great video. Every time I see a FireBoss land, it looks like the pilot is trying to wrestle a shopping cart to the ground!

No Herks, NEPTUNEs, and Orions? Is it field length or ramp space that limits CONAIR?

@BSiskaAviation 3 года назад

Awesome stuff! Love seeing those Convair's in action!

They were really working. ? is, did it make a difference in putting out that fire. 580s are so cool. Very nice lines & probably fly's great too.

Great video! I like how you bookended the FireBosses, first landing at beginning of vid and then taking off at end. They were in for food, foam, and fuel, and of course a well deserved break. Were all the takeoffs and landings of retardant aircraft in between actually during the FireBosses time on the ground? If so...wow!
