Waldbrand Hirschwang, viele Helikopter und Löschflugzeuge

Am 26.10.21 brach der bisher größte Waldbrand in Österreich aus. Mindestens eine Woche hatten die Einsatzkräfte damit zu kämpfen (und trotz Regens ist es immer noch nicht endgültig gelöscht). Vom Boden schwer zu bekämpfen (unwegsam!) muss hier schon Einiges in der Luft anrücken:
Airbus H125 (Polizei), Alouette III, Agusta-Bell AB-212
2 Blackhawks, ein roter Super Puma, eine slovakische Mil Mi-171 und die italienischen Wasserflugzeuge vom Typ Canadair CL-415.

Toll zu sehen, daß die Nachbarländer so toll mithelfen.
Danke an alle Beteiligten!

26.Oct 2021 a huge forrest fire (for our scale) was started. It seems thru an abandoned campfire - but also because the forrest was very dry due to long periods of no rain.
Now it's over a week and each day 500 or more firefighters and many helicopters and planes try to extinguish the fire! It's especially difficult due to the rough terrain (very steep!).
In the next days rain is forecasted - so it should end soon!
Despite the incredible damage to the woods (will take 20+ years to repair) it was a spectacular sight to see all those copters in the air and amazing to see so much people work together to achieve one goal!
Great to see neighbouring countries (Italia, Slovakia and Germany) stepping in to help us.
Forrest fires of that scale are seldom in Austria - that's why we don't have enough large helicopters or planes. Also it looks like the water-planes Italy sent are not optimal - large rivers or lakes to fill up the planes water tank are mostly too far away...
Thanks to all involved,
thank you for watching (and reading this description),
greets, Mario

Danke für diese beeindruckenden Aufnahmen!!
Eindeutig das beste Video das ich bis jetzt gesehen habe👍

[BBFPV]

Super Mario, selten so realistische Modelle gesehen! 👌😁

[superspiegi]

Unpackbare Leistung von allen Piloten!! Danke fürs Video!

[feuerwehrebenfurthstadt]

Super Video! Besten Aufnahmen die es gibt von den Fluggeräten die man finden kann. 👍🏽💪🏾

[vonpredator]

Excellent video! CL-415 🇨🇦 BRING THE RAIN!

[AerialWaviator]

This one hell of an airshow! So many types of aircraft. Amazing and sad at same time.
Each litre of water weighs a kg, so these are huge pendulums the pilots are skillfully managing.

[MCsCreations]

Damn... It's a horrible time of the year for a wildfire! So many trees getting brown... 😬
I hope they can stop it soon, Mario! Thanks a lot for sharing the video!!!
Stay safe there with your family! 🖖😊

I realize that this is a video compilation of flights over hours and days, but that's still a lot of traffic. Helicopters flying max climb rate up to the drop zone is one thing, basically pull on the collective until rotor RPM starts to drop, but that drop back down from the drop zone to the refill gets me every time. Point the nose down and drop like a brick! :o Oh, and stay out of your own downwash when it comes time to stop at the bottom - thus the spiral approach to the refill tank.

A bunch of capable craft and pilots showing us their stuff.

Excellent video. Hope they get it under control.
Very impressive what we can do when we work together as people and countries.

[taneliharkonen]

thats some international co-operation right there! 😯💪

[MisterSoul]

Super Aufnahmen! Woher all die Szenen?

[gargolaconrad]

Nice footage of the fire fighting ordeal, Maybe you could sell the footage to local news stations, and even the news stations in the countries that helped out too. and that's pretty cool that Italia, Slovakia, and Germany helped out. Greets, Conrad

If only you had posted this video earlier, then Veritasium would not have had to do any Helicopter Slinging Rope experiments 😃

Interesting. In Canada they likely wouldn't fight it in that steep terrain. They'd plaster the ridge top with retardant and let it burn to the retardant guard. But they always put on an impressive show. The Canadair CL-215s are amazing aircraft. The only aircraft purpose built for fire fighting. All others are adapted airframes. Built in Canada. The Italians have 20+ in their fleet. Think the military flies them there. In Canada it's all contractors. Cool you got to see them load and dump. Before it was decommissioned, I watched the Martin Mars air tanker scoop and drop several times. A frickin' monster.

And in terms of ground assistance for loading, it is completely unnecessary. Those firefighters shouldn't be standing around the stillwell as the chopper fills his bucket. In Canada most fly with 150-200 foot long lines and can hit a stillwell dead center. Amazing to watch.

Move to California :) last year there was a jumbo jet thingy dropping retardant flying lower than the hills we where standing on. Amazing pilots

[EnglishTurbines]

This wouldn't happen in the UK, it's always feckin raining and blowing...🤔🙄🙄🇬🇧

In breaking news, Austrian fire-fighting helicopters were grounded today after reports that a man was seen who is known to own a drone. A police spokesperson would only refer to the man as Mario S. Mario S reportedly operates a very popular YouTube channel in which he demonstrates his drone flying to a global audience. The Austrian aviation regulator told media _"we had to ground all helicopters due to the risk associated with a known drone-owner being in the area"_ . New calls have now been made for a total ban on evil drones in the wake of today's events. 😀 😀 😀

[olafschermann]

Jössas - das ist ja gleich bei dir ums Eck.

[TheMadmacs]

ridiculous skills to do this kind of work. some of those heli's were on the big side for this kind of work, but hey if the pilots willing, its job worth doing.

[RCRitterFPV]

quiet the show the put on for you.
they aren't messing around
