these are the type of videos that deserve to be watched by millions so they can wake up and realize our nature is getting way too warm

[@Desperate4Freedom.]

Thank-you. ❤️.

[@fixcanada336]

I believe the proper UN label is not warming but boiling. Also, how much water is that compared to a water bomber? Now how much fuel per min does the heli burn compared to the fuel per hour the water bomber burns. Also, Why use a fire extinguisher to put out a burning house.

😊😊😊

[@nate87799]

This has absolutely nothing to do with “global warming”

[@red_d849]

agreed

[@bonniemoore8836]

One heck of a pilot!!!

[@user-hz7ti2dz3k]

Helicopter pilots must be insane. That looks so dangerous 😮

[@austinb1824]

Doesn't look dramatic, yet it is very skillful.

[@vizak20]

Interesting short. Demonstrates clearly that with heavy load helis need a component of forward flight to achieve climb. Not just the rotational lift of blades, but the lifting foil of the forward moving blade disc.

[@red_d849]

i dont think its always the case but yeah

[@mikebunner3498]

You ALL stay safe and kick fire's butt!!!! I love to fly, so these videos thrill me!!!!! COOL.........................

[@Desperate4Freedom.]

Thanks

[@januaryrice1428]

This was epic!

[@BrokenUnion-ue7lu]

Nice!

[@kaymarieperera4778]

Great pilot. But we have to think of more efficient ways of getting more water airborne to put out wildfires

[@holditorsken2030]

what would you say is more efficient in this case?

[@chasesprinkle5467]

right like those big planes with the sprayers for crops, we need that we like flat streams instead

[@austinhunt8050]

@@chasesprinkle5467they make fire fighting planes for that purpose but they aren’t crop dusters. Crop dusters hold 1000 maybe 2000lb of water used to apply roundup or pesticides, while firefighting planes can hold 10,000lb plus.

[@Mandatoryuser]

​@@austinhunt8050check out the AT-802. It's just an ag sprayer modified with floats so it can scoop from lakes and dump water on fires.

Hey Desperate 4 Freedom, your content is top-notch! Can I use it on my channel? I'll make sure to attribute it to you.

[@Desperate4Freedom.]

If you promise what you promised then, go for it. Make sure that name of my channel is there. Have fun.

[@Sergey322]

thanks!@@Desperate4Freedom.

Pilot: dun mind me just swinging around my giant nuts of solid tunsten gotta drop some water on OH CANADA.

[@xbubblehead]

Only water from a certain spot in the lake is good against fires.

[@blackhawkrescuemissiongame8461]

No?

[@joerarey8496]

I imagine this was his 'circuit' or fastest ingress egress allowing time for the loaded chopper to maintain safe altitude at the end of the lake when going back to the fire

[@diegocordeiro.]

🚁 helicopter

[@tombryant4518]

Dude needs a long line. That’s a bucket just waiting to get flipped up into the main rotor while trying to fill it.

[@pilotsspace]

Bambi bucket is too close to the heli

[@Todd_Govard]

GTA 4 turned out to be unrealistic.

I can't even see the pilot driver ❤☺️

He is there :)

*Fish:*

[@adriaanboogaard8571]

Definitely a turn and burn scupeing to put out what's burning. In a hurry.

[@Nick-ov7yg]

What lake is this?

[@Desperate4Freedom.]

Norway Oslo

[@markharris1473]

Just wondering how many fish they pick up out of the lake to spread out onto the fire. Maybe have a fish fry too while putting the fire out 😉

[@Desperate4Freedom.]

Haha you are so right. Good point 👉 👈

[@Bandiit6oo]

He just fly's over the entire lake to pick it up near some kids, to then fly back over the entire lake to same direction he came from🤦

[@tombryant4518]

Tell us you don’t know how to fly a helicopter without telling us that you don’t know how to fly a helicopter. You need a low departure angle that’s long enough to safely gain altitude while flying into the wind. That is while paying attention to your torque percentage, and trying to control a 900 pound load of water that’s swinging around underneath you.

[@enderboygamer3248]

[@k3n0012]

Can give some

[@Desperate4Freedom.]

give what?

[@carlosandrecarlos556]

Só tenho uma coisa que eu nao gostei no helicóptero Esquilo é que sua rotação principal é ao contrário e os pedais também em vez de ser a direito diferente da rotação por exemplo do Bell jet ranger qur a sua rotação e os pedais sao direito em ver de ser esquerdo esse helicóptero Esquilo é bom para quem é canhoto 😂😂

[@robertbussey9643]

That chopper didn’t like that water weight lol

[@billysapp5582]

How long does the water stay in the bag?

[@Desperate4Freedom.]

The rate at which a Bambi Bucket loses water primarily depends on several factors: Bucket Size: Larger Bambi Buckets can hold more water, but they might have a higher rate of water loss due to their larger openings when releasing water onto a fire. Release Mechanism: The rate of water release can vary depending on the design and technology of the bucket. Some Bambi Buckets have controlled release mechanisms that allow for precise water drops, while others might have more rapid or continuous release methods. Altitude and Speed: When a helicopter is flying with a filled Bambi Bucket, the speed and altitude at which it travels can affect water loss. Higher speeds or altitudes might cause more splashing or increased spillage. Environmental Conditions: Wind speed and direction can influence water loss. Strong winds could cause water to spill out or disperse more rapidly from the bucket during transport or while dropping onto a fire. Pilot Skill and Technique: The skill and experience of the helicopter pilot in managing the bucket's release mechanism and flying techniques can also impact water loss. Specific data on the exact rate of water loss from a Bambi Bucket may vary significantly based on these variables and may not have a standard or uniform measurement. The primary focus during firefighting operations is generally on effective and efficient water delivery to combat the fire rather than measuring the rate of water loss from the bucket itself.
