Since it's been mentioned here, for those in the fire zone, if you see a large,
red
and white four-engined flying boat (due to lack of perspective it will probably
appear to be flying very slowly) stop and look up. You probably will never see
it
again.
(Despite the article, there are only two operational left in the world, out of
four
ever made.)
I don't know if they will reload from the lake down there: if they do, the
thing
picks up 29 tons of water in 28 seconds.
(No, not as big as the Spruce Goose, but they have actually been working all
this
time.)
(And, please, don't break it.)
