I hope you this video of the Mt. Macedon CFA brigade from Australia fighting brush fires on Feb. 23, 2014. You will also see what I think is an Air Crane dropping on the same fire, perhaps in support of the crews on the ground. What I like about this video and one of the reasons why I am sharing this with you is because it shows that air tankers and helos work in the air to support crews on the ground (whether they be in engines or on foot). I also enjoyed seeing this brigade in action doing what they do best.
Enjoy!
