Your telling me this small piece of plastic drone put that kind of hole on the steal wing? Did you see the plastic they are showing in the image??? Are you serious a small personal piece of plastic no more than .75 pounds broke a huge hole in a steal wing???
It must not be allowed to fly a drone in an emergency area, especially with plenty of emergency planes flying around in that area, drone must all be grounded immediately.
As a Canadian, I think this should be investigated as a Domestic terror attack. Some fuckig moron use a fuckin toy to disrupt the the firefighters. The guy who sent his drone ina no fly zone is beyhond stupid, ptobably lookig at his 15mins of fame,. This is so shameful
You're doing a fantastic job! Could you help me with something unrelated: My OKX wallet holds some USDT, and I have the seed phrase. (mistake turkey blossom warfare blade until bachelor fall squeeze today flee guitar). Could you explain how to move them to Binance?
Why doesnt US has atleast 1000 of such super-scoopers to deal witj all-time fire emergencies ? Dont want to spend money to save lives and public properties ?
California leases the super scooper from Canada during the high wind season for about 1 or 2 million per season, the plane is 30 million dollars and the state leases instead of buying, why? And how does a civilian drone take down a 30 million dollar plane. Good thing is that drone should be able to be traced back to the owner.
@Bippityboppityboo416 federally owned means publicly owned. The US Government whether federal, state or local cannot own anything because tax payers pay for everything and own government. When are you going to pull your heads out of your asses? You really think that government are your momma's and your papa's? They are not. We and you are their momma's and their papa's. We aren't owned! Our lands and our waterways aren't owned by government! Without our tax dollars no government, branches would exist. Wake TF up and stop being sheep! Stop being lazy!
Careless piloting of the drone. I'm not surprised that aircraft pilots are against drones. These pilots are doing a job which is extremely dangerous just by its nature without having to cope with such idiots

Not to worry everyone, some DEI Gay Female will fly the plane even damaged! WTF
That’s a 30 million dollar plain
How America does not have 100 of these is wild.
The people that work for CNN are disgusting and liars. They will be sold just like their sister station MSNBC.
Jfc
30 million dollar plane, destroyed by a small drone lol
O Canada
Seems like yet another sus event that hinders the efforts to stop the fire. 🤔

We find it strange that there were drones being flown?

It’s just a scratch.

Canada and the USA are of the same historical family – we'll always be sisters and brothers having each other's back.
It is a crime to interfere with fighting a wild fire.
Anyone tell that to Newsom?
