That twin boom plane in the pic looked like an old OV10 Bronco from the Vietnam era. Musta been just looking the area over, couldn't carry much for fire fighting. I wouldn't wanna fly in one of those C130 fire fighters, some of those are real old and been through a lot of abuse. Like the one that shed both wings pulling up from a drop several years back...
