Cal Fire S2T "Stoof" working the fire lines

Wow! That is neat! I recognize the pilot and the Ramona airport from when I used to work in a hangar next door to the fire fighting facility.

I admire the work that Cal Fire does. It is risky work.

There is a barn in the vicinity that has “Thank you CDF” painted on its roof and is visible from an airplane.
 
The pilots love to do the work. Dad and I used to watch them fuel up and take on retardant . Some times they would come out to take a break as talk to us . My neighbor two houses up was a Helo pilot for Cal fire , He loved flying.
