Life imitates Always. A C-130 air tanker crashes while fighting a fire in the Sierra. One picture (a still from a TV crew who were filming interviews with locals) shows the wing separated from the fuselage, with flame on both parts. The guys who fight forest fires have always stuck me as being the... damn, words fail me..., the folks who do it from the air are that plus fighter pilot tricks in big turbo-props. Anyway, a little time out and a deep breath for three people who got caught pushing the envelope.
