CL-215 Canadair


The fire on Moose Mountain is close to the Fairbanks International Airport so the CL-215 planes were using the float pond to fill up with water to dump on the fire.  We stopped by the float pond on Saturday afternoon and took this video (not with the good camera as I only had the small camera in my bag).  It still turned out rather well.


You can hear the plane way before you can see it in the video.
