From @active_norcal - CalFire airplanes have becom

From @active_norcal - CalFire airplanes have become well known for their visually-stimulating drops of bright-red flame retardant on California fires. And while they’re great to watch videos of the drops in action, it’s hard to see just how effective the retardant can be in extinguishing devastating wildfires.

That’s why CalFire released this video showing a plane dropping 9,000 pounds of flame retardant on an old Ford Explorer, showing the sheer force of the drop along with the pin-point accuracy the planes deploy.

Swipe 👉🏻 to watch the video from @calfire. #aerialfirefighting #wildfires #firefighters #fireseason #firefighting #emergencyresponse #aviation #safety #teamwork #rescue #heroes #disasterrelief #awareness #protection #forestfires #airtanker #fireprevention #firedepartment #disasterresponse #climatechange #emergencymanagement #firebreak #aviationphotography #firecontrol

From our friends at @embraer on the @maffs system-

From our friends at @embraer on the @maffs system- “With its superior flying qualities coming from its state-of-the-art technology and full fly-by-wire flight controls, the C-390 Millennium is extremely effective during firefighting missions, with reduced pilot workload and increased performance. This month, the aircraft operated by the Brazilian Air Force and equipped with the second-generation Modular Airborne Fire-Fighting System (MAFFS-II) was deployed in the region of Pantanal, in Brazil, for a real firefighting mission for the first time.”

MAFFS KC-390 currently flying missions in Pantanal, Brazil. Thank you to our partners for their dedication and support as we battle these 🔥 🔥 🔥 together @embraer @ofidiosnarota @fab_oficial @unitedaeronautical @bradford_beck / @Esquadroesdaforcaaerea @repost KC-390 Millennium estreou nas missões de combate a incêndio na sexta-feira (28), ao ser engajado para atuar no Pantanal.

A aeronave do Esquadrão Zeus está operando a partir de Corumbá (MS). O KC-390 usa o Modular Airborne Fire Fighting System II (MAFFS II), um equipamento fabricado nos Estados Unidos, para despejar até 12 mil litros d’água sobre as queimadas que assolam o bioma.

Só neste sábado (segundo vídeo) foram quatro voos, totalizando o lançamento de 48 mil litros d’água e 2:55 horas de voo na operação.

Desde o início deste ano, mais de 688 mil hectares foram queimados no Pantanal, cerca de 4,5% do bioma, segundo dados da UFRJ. A maior parte dos focos está na região de Corumbá, que concentra 66% das ocorrências.

The C-130 Hercules is a versatile and reliable transport aircraft that can carry a wide variety of cargo, including vehicles, pallets, troops, and medical equipment. It has a high-wing, four-engine turboprop configuration that allows the aircraft to have a large cargo door and ramp at the rear, which facilitates the loading and unloading of cargo and personnel. In addition to its tremendous lift capability, the aircraft also proved to be far more maneuverable than expected while meeting or exceeding all of the other U.S. Air Force performance requirements.

Though capable of reaching a top speed of 405 mph

Though capable of reaching a top speed of 405 mph and a range of 5,570 miles, the P-3 Orion was designed to fly at low altitudes and slow speeds for long periods of time, making it an invaluable maritime patrol plane for the Navy. It’s a versatile platform that was used as a critical tool in the successful blockade of Cuba during the 1962 Cuban Missile Crisis and can today be adopted as an air tanker for firefighting.

The F-16 was designed to be the best air-to-air do

The F-16 was designed to be the best air-to-air dogfighter. To enable this, the F-16 was the first aircraft with a reinforced airframe to survive 9-Gs. The pilot’s seat was elevated and set to 30 degrees instead of 12 degrees like other 4th generation aircraft. This angle helps the pilot avoid blacking out during high G maneuvers. The control stick is set to the pilot’s right side versus a traditional middle stick. This gives the pilot arm support and more control in very tight turns. The F-16 has a one-piece, polycarbonate, bubble canopy with no forward frame. This bird-proof canopy gives the pilot a full 360-degree view, better than other 4th generation aircraft. United Aeronautical (UAC) proudly serves as an original equipmentyy manufacturer (OEM) supplier, providing essential parts and maintenance support for the F-16 worldwide. #UnitedAeronautical #UAC #F-16 #AviationParts #AircraftMaintenance #OEMSupplier #Aviation #AircraftSpareParts #AviationComponents #AircraftRepair #AircraftMechanics #Aerospace #FlightSafety #AviationEngineering #MilitaryAircraft #AviationMaintenance #AircraftSupply #GeneralDynamics
