BC Firefighting Helicopter Near Miss With Powerline Tower
BC Firefighting Helicopter Near Miss With Hydro Tower Video just Released
A video has just been released on Stringr.com for the news and media. The clip has been in the ProPics Canada Media Ltd files and was being reviewed for inclusion in a video to promote fire awareness and prevention when the editor noticed that the water bucket below the helicopter actually made contact with either the Hydro tower or Powerlines in flight.
The main video is on Stringr.com and following the real-time footage, a second scene is added at 25% speed and zoomed in to better view the moment of contact which causes the contents of the water bucket (hanging from the helicopter) to splash contents out as it makes contact with the tower or powerlines.
This illustrates how dangerous it is for the helicopter pilots and anyone below during the heroic efforts they put in trying to save communities and lives. It also demonstrates the risk to any members of the general public below in fire zones when they should not be in the restricted areas. This pilot kept going and fortunately came close to disaster but was able to finish his/her shift and go home at the end of the day. You can see in the video how that was so close to not being the case.
The video was actually captured by a ProPics Canada Media video journalist during the Lytton Wildfires on July 01, 2021 at approx. 8:51pm.

The tankers seem to get all the glory but the folks flying lead have their work cut out for them as well. Here's an CalFire OV-10A "Bronco" that was flying lead for the T-912 (used to seeing the Broncos mostly in an Aerial command and control mission). #aerialfirefighting #firefighter #detwilerfire (at Mariposa, California)

A 747-400 Supertanker majestically drops fire retardant near a forest fire. This was filmed out the back of a OV-10 Bronco, which helps mark where the retardant should be dropped.

It’s wonderful to see great aircraft getting repurposed in incredibly useful ways that their designers never even originally imagined. . . . This BAE146, converted and operated by @airspray_airtankers , is seen performing a water drop demo during the 2018 Aerial Fire Fighting North America Conference held earlier this year in Sacramento, CA. #airtanker #waterdrop #fire #aerialfirefighting #aviation #aviationphotography #fireseason #avrojet #bae146 #regionaljet #nextgenairtanker #largeairtanker #3000gallon #jet #irads #wildfires #california #forestfire #tanker #aerialfirefightingnorthamerica #tangentlink (at Sacramento McClellan Airport) https://www.instagram.com/p/Bl_9eKvA9xm/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1qz2sxb0ukeb
