Wildfires take a team to combat. From our local volunteer fire departments to Texas A&M Forest Service wildland firefighters we are all work together to safety contain wildfires. One part of that team is aviation.
In this video, a large air tanker which is an RJ-85 aircraft is making a drop of 3000 gallons of fire retardant on Gravel Pit Fire in Potter County March 15, 2018.
Thank you, Cody Holloway, for the video.
