CAL FIRE Air Attack - Still Fire (Ft. Zayde Wolf)
Вставка
- Опубліковано 25 вер 2022
- Jump in the pilot's seat of a CAL FIRE S-2 Air Tanker as it drops on the Still Fire. Listen in to the radio traffic between the OV-10 Air Attack (aka "Spotter plane") and the helicopters, air tankers, and the Incident Commander (IC) on the ground as they coordinate forces to stop a fast-moving wildfire threatening multiple houses and structures. Watch the retardant fly from a unique view under the belly of a CAL FIRE air tanker. See how quickly air tankers are refilled with retardant during a fire.
This video takes you behind the scenes to view the coordination, piloting, and communication of aerial fire fighters battling to stop a wildfire.

The Guys do a Great Job by all those who are threatened by such fires & I believe not just those persons threatened by them but the on ground fire fighters appreciate the work you do...
Fantastic vision as well.
Thankyou for this, truly terrific job..
Good Stuff Bo and Abbie!
How did I know you would be in the comment section 😂!
Wow that is cool, looks more fun than my airline job.
Another great example of what Cal-Fire provides every day, true "Speed and Force" for Initial Attack fires.
It's about time this site was created...I love it. Years ago (45 years+-) I worked at the Nevada County airport and fueled those S2's now called S2T's for the new turbo engines. Back then they had the big radial engines and used a lot of fuel and oil. Best job ever....
That tail boom footage 👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻
And the OV-10…what a beast
That was an S-2T Airtanker
Cal Fire air, you guys rock.
That made an unforgettable part of my life. Watching plane 86 & 88 charge out of Columbia CA.& fight fires in EVERY direction in Tuolumne County❗
Awesome teamwork, amazing comms and piloting; inspiring.
I say hats off to the ground crew, maintenance team, and ATC, who's efforts and skills often get forgotten. No fires get put out unless you have dedicated pros at all these stations. Thanks to all of you for doing what you do. Private pilot and Sonoma County resident here.
I'm going to enjoy watching this channel blow up - on the other hand - I hope you never need to do anything other than keeping small fires small. God bless you all and thank you for everything that you do... ❤🐾
Excellent video Grass Valley Air Attack!! good music and great video. David is so calm and specific with his direction. Great Job you guys. Thank you for protecting us.
Some awesome flying skills on display here. CALFIRE rocks!
Awesome footage. Hold off on the background music. Difficult to hear the communication.
Unbelievable! Heros! Thank you!
Great videos of what you guys do! As a former wildland firefighter with the feds, you guys have saved my ass more than once. Eternally indebted to these pilots and all that they do!
Glad to see some cal fire aviation videos making an appearance. I will say the background music makes the radio traffic hard to heard. Please keep the videos coming😎
Good job there Cal Fire Air Attack !!
Hero’s…. God bless you all . And thanks for all you do
Amazing
God Bless all of you!
Incredible!
One of the best IA video's that I have ever seen.
Great job all involved.
Yeah!!! You can bet there were some hand crews too. ✋
This fire was three miles from my house. It’s amazing how fast you guys got this out. Thanks so much!
Calfire best firefighting outfit . I flew for Butler/TBM back in the 90's
Bravo.Thenks
Great video! You guys are heroes and so glad your so close. Blessed to have you in our area and thank you for all you do for us!
Very precise applications there, great work done by all involved.
Awesome to see what you brave folks do from all the different angles! If you can keep delivering this great content, it could be a great education and recruitment tool for aerial firefighting! Fly safe!
Great job guys! GV always killing it!
Awesome work!
Amazing Job. Amazing video. Thanks
I've seen these kind of Air crew's do a great job from a boots on the ground P.O.V. many times. It's very cool and interesting to see and here there P.O.V. I've got 28 years in the water utility on a government level and my system provides water when they need it.and we help maintain our Canyon water shed. I've also done Fire fuel management for State lands Forestry and Fire. Great Video and cudos to the Dispatcher and crew's. Very professional. 😁👍
You gotta admire the radio traffic
more radio less music imho
Yupp nothing like calling in drops
Excellent video.
What a neat video!
Beautiful work, spectacular footage and editing.
Great video. Really let’s us lay folks see the military precision involved in fighting these fires and coordinating the resources. Thank you!
Great video, great editing. Nice job👍
Good job !
Thanks - that was a bit frightening. Especially as the plane descended over the lake. I wondered if it was Lake of the Pines about a mile from where old friends live - and sure enough it is. Keep up the good work!
Great people these are...
Nice...
Good drop
Thumbs up and new subscriber. REALLY like the content and appreciate the effort it takes to put these together. You could lose or lower the music. Sometimes interferes with the radio traffic. Otherwise, I think this is unique content for what you do. Great job.
Great job, especially this year the way you have hit fires early and hard to limit their growth and it shows, under 400k acers this year compared to 2.5 million acers last year. We still have a little fire season to go, lets hope the numbers stay down.
Well done…
Outstanding video. I work on a ramp with jets but its not as cool as this. 👍🏻
WOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Thank You - gallons of coffee, av gas, jet fuel, Coke, then hours of aircraft maintenance and paperwork. (then maybe a cold one for ground crews)
Great footage, but get rid of the music.
Probably super obvious; what is Foster Crew 3?
Does insurance foot the bill? That was expensive..
That's a good question. CAL FIRE"s basic job is to protect investments - timber and homes, parks too...
California taxpayers foot the bill with extra from rural property taxpayers. The Feds must throw some in too.
@@archstanton_live If the fault is found to occur from the property, not natural, that could bankrupt a business as insurance has its limits. I do love the repurposing of these aircraft, although the fire-retardant does cause the vegetation to grow abnormally fast...
My comment is only about the video: music is terrible, natural sounds to covey what is happening would be much better. Too much fast video too. Another comment here called the music “background “ music, it is so loud it is indeed “foreground” music. Just what is it about UA-camrs that they think music must accompany everything???
Turn off the music
Lame music.
