I just saw the Evergreen 747 coming in to fight the Station Fire. I also heard they are going to bring in the second DC10.


Where is the 747 being based at I wonder.  Victorville/George AFB(Fmr)  I thought they were using both DC-10's arleady.   Where did you see it G?

A little paradise and natural disaster all in one.  I had some clients drive down from Palmdale this afternoon and they said it was quite the sight to see going into LA.  Cool shot Fernando! ;)

Thanks, I think I have it under the correct fire.  It was take from the shopping center in El Segudo with the Whole Foods, Best Buys, and Dicks on Sepulveda.  Out here at work now the smoke has laid down and looks sort of like fog but brownish gray.

*Whistle*  Looks like a volcano erupted, and some great detail on that smoke.  What a view that plane flying downwind on final to LAX must be getting!  Nice ones Damon! ;)

Thoughts and Prayers to the two firefighters that lost their lives yesterday 8/30/09.

From El Segudo.  Saturday night I could see the fire lines from Harbor Hills on Western Ave.

Wasn't quite sure where to put these, since there are no a/c in them. Anyways, here are some shots I took from Fox Field late tonight.
Good stuff, Brian. 

Scary feeling for the people around I bet...

Incredible stuff man.  Really, this makes my PV fire captures look like child's play.

Yep
