      ​@@Tazytotshell no. A small miscalculation and you're a fireball. You need to fly slow and low to properly distribute the fire retardant: too high or too fast and it gets dispersed. In those conditions the plane is barely maneuverable and your engines are susceptible to shutdown due to debris or smoke ingestion. You don't have the altitude or speed to restart an engine either.

    • @glennchartrand5411
      @glennchartrand5411 3 місяці тому +8

      The spotter plane does two things.
      1. Hot air is less dense causing the wings to produce less lift, it flies ahead to make sure the air is dense enough
      The spotter plane isnt carrying any load so it can handle flying into hot air, but the DC-10 is near its maximum weight and could suddenly drop.
      2.The DC-10 pilot can't really see the ground under him , so the spotter plane guides him and tells him when to drop.

      When editing a video, there are visual representations of the sound profiles which makes it very easy to sync to a video, Just drag things till they match and crop things to tidy it up and viola. Its actually really simple but often overlooked.
