Firefighting Effect

[Travis]

What would you say is the best FS9 firefighting effect?  I would prefer the red retardant, but just a good water version would be okay.

I have one, but it falls forward of the aircraft instead of behind it.  Not very realistic, is it?

I was experimenting with making a 747 smoke bomber and used the red smoke effect from the Pitts Special and just made several lines where the "smoke" appeared a little lower and farther behind than the line above it.  I'm still not satisfied with the effect, however.  The trail persists too long.

Yeah, I could see that happening, but it doesn't fall to the ground.  It's way too buoyant.  I want something heavy that will fall like water, but is red.  I remember having that for FS2k2, but I don't know where it went.

Which smoke bomber are you using with the effects showing up in front of the aircraft?  It's probably just a tweak of the .cfg.
