I teamed up with Rob Edgcumbe to provide media coverage of the 2016 Aerial Firefighting International conference.  The highlight of the event were the aerial demonstrations session which included this Fire Boss.  Equipped with floats, this aircraft can scoop 800 gallons of water in 12-15 seconds and be off the water and on its way again to the front lines in as few as 20-30 seconds.  Nikon D300 w/18-200mm, processed with Aperture and CK Suite.
