    Salvó el ahora llamado Bombardier Canadienses 415 que es un turbohelice Anfibio, los demás son aviones Modificados NO ANFIBIOS utilizados para el Combate de Incendios Forestales, La gran diferencia se da cuando los comparamos con aviones especificamente diseñados para el combatir incendios. El AG 600 Chino cuatrimotor turbohelice anfibio, El Bombardier Canadienses Bimotor Anfibio turbohelice 415, y el BE 200 Bimotor Anfibio Ruso a reacción, con una capacidad de carga de 12 mil litros y recargando en solo 15segundos raspando con la panza en Ríos, Mar, Lagos etc hasta llegar a 240tn sin recargar combustible, Si busco un avión Anfibio a Reacción solo está el BE 200 Ruso, No entiendo cómo la Boeing la Arbus o la Bombardier No diseñan un avión Anfibio a Reacción con las mismas o superiores características que el BE 200 Ruso, El desastre que ocurrió en California con los incendios forestales como también paso en Australia y Chile demuestran la necesidad de desarrollar este sistema, En mi país he presentado un proyecto para crear una escuadrilla Latinoaméricana permanente para combate de Incendios Forestales en la camara de Diputados ( Representantes) basado en el BE 200 y les interesó esté proyecto el problemas es que solo está el avión Ruso con estás características y no hay ni uno solo en el mundo con estás características Espero tener novedades de BOEING O ARBUS por ejemplo abrazo grande desde Argentina

    Also, all I ever see you guys doing is this....^ taking video and pictures. What exactly is it you do? Structural protection engines I see working tirelessly. Heavy equipment operators as well. What do "hotshots" and cal fire engines do aside from drive around and take pics? Occasionally break out a saw and cut a few limbs. I've ran dozer on fire and the amount of wasted money paying people to do nothing is insane. Leave it to the dozers, air attack and Structural protection task forces. Get rid of these stupid forest service entities. Privatize every bit of it. The forest management. Oversight etc.
