2 Super Scoopers (Bombardier Canadair CL-415 named Quebec 1 and Quebec 2 based at VNY, I understand) reload water at Lake Palmdale in support of the Agua Dulce fire. They were at Malibu (Canyon Fire) earlier in the day then at Castaic (Ridge Fire), before Agua Dulce flared. 1500 PT 10/21/2007. Sorry for the shakiness (it was windy!) and forgetting to zoom in...Caught the tail end of the 2nd of 2 aircraft scooping the water and the 1st circling back West to the fire. They were at Santa Clarita (Buckweed and Magic fires) the next day.
They caught the Acton arsonist(Tues.)right on the freeway at Ave S,basically in front of the parking lot.The scoopers used the lake that day ,also.I've been shooting video at Fox base with a lot of tankers working the Arrowhead fire(Wed.-Thurs.)Thanks for the video clip.

Thanks for the video! I was in the parking lot watching too but didn't have the cell with me. I am so glad you did since I can let my family in Kentucky watch yours and see what I saw!
