This is a small collage of the two Canadian CL-215 water bomber planes that came out to fight a huge grass/brush fire close to our home. Was an amazing sight, they're incredibly manuverable and can hold so much water it makes me wonder how they fly at all!

I found the fact they look like giant flying boats to be quite amusing, though I understand it's like that so they can land on a lake or river to scoop up water...still amusing!

Taken 5-13-10, pardon my old Canon camera
