S-2T: in action (1 of 2)

Here are a couple of very short videos of S-2T's in action. In the first video, the S-2T is working with a lead plane in the 2007 Zaca Fire in Los Padres National Forest. The first plane you see is the lead plane showing the S-2T where to make the drop. A few seconds later, the S-2T tanker flies through to make the drop.



In the second video, the S-2T tanker seems to be working with out a lead plane. At least a lead plane is not shown in the video. The last few letters in the name of this video is cut off, it is "CDF Air Tanker 78 Drops on Felter Fire/Santa Clara Unit"
