Reloading the 747 SuperTanker

Описание к видео Reloading the 747 SuperTanker

This shows part of the process of reloading the aircraft with compressed air and 19,200 gallons of water in Santiago, Chile. There was no air tanker infrastructure or fire hydrant, so trucks had to transport the water which was then stored in portable tanks. Much of the work was done by local bomberos (firefighters) who fine-tuned the process making it quicker every day. At air tanker bases in the U.S. air tankers are reloaded by pulling one or two hoses on rollers out to the aircraft. No trucks are required.
