Photographer's remark

Conair Fireboss air tankers skim lakes to refill their 3100 L tanks with water so they can attack the massive wildfires that were burning in the area this summer. 6 Fireboss aircraft were in this group with a Cessna 208 Caravan Birddog aircraft overhead to control their drops. The Fireboss is just lifting off from a run with the intake probes draining out. Quite an airshow but it was under heavy smoke and getting late in the evening making it hard to photograph. The ripping sound these swarms of planes make as they skim the lake surface together throwing up sheets of spray is amazing!
