The fire fighters are doing a great job – the damage could have been substantially worse because this fire wasn’t located on the outskirts of town – it was right in the middle:
They didn’t have the DC-10 flying on Thursday because it was the pilot’s day off. This is San Marcos or Escondido:
amazing footage, that photo of the DC10 flying that low is crazy. no wonder there’s only a very select number of pilots that are allowed to do this.
thanks Jim!
The picture you have of the DC 10 low dropping retardant is NOT San Diego …. It was taken during the Falls Fire in Lake Elsinore 2013!
