air tanker slow motion

Lots of people lined the shores of Okanagan lake watching the fire and the retardant being dropped by the air tanker. I wonder what it's like to fly such a big plane so close to the ground through the smoke.

@pretzl85

it is wake turbulence, i'm pretty sure...watch at 2:50... it's spiraling counterrotating... otherwise the props had to spin counterrotating..

[pretzl85]

@twoaxis its called prop wash

Like your channel with plenty of slow motion and in many of them I 'd catch space critters.

I'll encourage you both to look into your original collection slow motion footages and discover complete new creatures, species which you'll not find in any book. Do as i did; slow down your sequence, large screen it, study frame by frame and inch by inch. Than you'll notice things you that may pay your attention. Anyway i'll keep on searching in your fantastic library to catch some more Space Critters.
