For Friday Fun, I am embedding a video from LA Flights, according to their YouTube channel they have been engaged in plane spotting at Los Angeles International Airport for at least 15 years. Recently they spotted Tanker 911, a DC-10 tanker from 10 Tanker. I was not aware of the age of this DC-10, she is 48 years old. I enjoyed this video and their commentary as they spotted Tanker 911, they seemed to be excited at seeing her. The video is a little over seven minutes long.
I have blogged about aerial wildland firefighting since 2009. I am not a firefighter and am not a pilot, just an interested bystander who wants to learn more and share what I learn here. Join me here as I blog on the aircraft and the pilots who fight wildland fires from the air in support of crews on the ground. I also blog on concerns affecting fire crews on the ground as well as other aviation and meteorology issues. Learn what it takes to do jobs that are staffed by the best of the best.
