You forgot that the airplane has an incredible “tale” wind. The props are just slowing the airplane down.

It’s out but, we can get together for burgers again and I’ll will show you some amazing shots of the helicopters gathering water in front of the 12th hole then dropping on the fire.

I have a lot of hours of that view (well, on the port side)...

That takes some real guts to pilot that in there.

Imagine the first guy to do it. I think it was in a WWII trainer out of Houston.
