Sécurité Civile Canadair CL-415T | F-ZBME

The south of France is, like many other countries, a field for wildfires. To fight them, the French Sécurité Civile operates a fleet of 12 CL-415T Canadairs. The Pelicans get very busy from June each year. This Canadair took-off from Nîmes a few minutes before this shot. It then took water on the Rhone river near Vallabrègues, before going on a surveillance mission.
