Default Los Angeles is burning

Okay, my first time posting photos, so hopefully this works....
Seeing as Los Angeles is on fire again, I figured I would post some photos of the aerial attack on last year's Malibu fires. (sorry for the camera phone quality)

Awesome shots. I was flying a Seminole in that junk and still talk about how bumpy and smokey it was.

The fourth pic from the right appears to be Tanker 09, which is special to me as I received my Lockheed P2V SIC Type in her, and was the crew chief (mechanic) for her in '06. She's the last of Neptune's airtankers with the old paint scheme. The picture quality makes it a bit hard to discern, but the vert. stab. appears to be white (which would have red numbers) instead of red (which would have white numbers).

It's also great to see Butler's Tanker 62 flying again.

Yeah, there was a DC-10 there. But none of those photos really turned out.
