Choppers are just tools—they can be used for good or evil.

It must on the backside of Dean Creek Resort. Saw a lot of different choppers going in and out of there yesterday.

I worked with the Redway Fire Department on Landing Zone safety at the Eel River Con Camp during the Canoe Fire. The lunches that they served us had apples in them. The deer got most of them from us. They will take them right out of your hand. They are not wild at all, but just like any deer, you have to be careful. If you do sometime that they don’t like they will slap the crap out of you with their hooves

A small bucket like the one shown carries about 300 gallons.

Capacity of “Bambi Bucket” is adjusted by tightening or loosening the white strap in the middle. Only adjusts about 20 or 30 gallons. But 20 or 30 gal. on hot day is a couple hundred extra lbs. Helicopters don’t generate as much lift in hot weather. Above 90 dgs. , usually the heaviest member of a “Helitack” crew will have to ride in “Helitender”.

Bucket size varies with lift capabilities of copter.

These choppers aren’t the ones to be concerned with. It’s that damn little white one with the diagonal blue stripe that contracts out to LE.
