Canadair CL-415 SOCAL Fire

Postby a1 » Sat Nov 15, 2008 7:46 pm

Got some pictures of the aircraft passing and turning around to drop some flame retardant on the nearby fires.

You can call these CL-415 or Bombardier 415.

The fires have apparently spread to more places now. Firefighters have only about 30% containment of somewhat around 4,000+ acres of fire. Newest is located in Anaheim. :-/ This thing is spreading fast.
