Waldbrand Hirschwang, viele Helikopter und Löschflugzeuge

Am 26.10.21 brach der bisher größte Waldbrand in Österreich aus. Mindestens eine Woche hatten die Einsatzkräfte damit zu kämpfen (und trotz Regens ist es immer noch nicht endgültig gelöscht). Vom Boden schwer zu bekämpfen (unwegsam!) muss hier schon Einiges in der Luft anrücken: Airbus H125 (Polizei), Alouette III, Agusta-Bell AB-212 2 Blackhawks, ein roter Super Puma, eine slovakische Mil Mi-171 und die italienischen Wasserflugzeuge vom Typ Canadair CL-415. (Tip: nutzt den Index wenn ihr bestimmte Maschinen sehen wollt!) Toll zu sehen, daß die Nachbarländer so toll mithelfen. Danke an alle Beteiligten!

26.Oct 2021 a huge forrest fire (for our scale) was started. It seems thru an abandoned campfire - but also because the forrest was very dry due to long periods of no rain.

Now it's over a week and each day 500 or more firefighters and many helicopters and planes try to extinguish the fire! It's especially difficult due to the rough terrain (very steep!). In the next days rain is forecasted - so it should end soon! Despite the incredible damage to the woods (will take 20+ years to repair) it was a spectacular sight to see all those copters in the air and amazing to see so much people work together to achieve one goal! Great to see neighbouring countries (Italia, Slovakia and Germany) stepping in to help us. Forrest fires of that scale are seldom in Austria - that's why we don't have enough large helicopters or planes. Also it looks like the water-planes Italy sent are not optimal - large rivers or lakes to fill up the planes water tank are mostly too far away... Thanks to all involved, thank you for watching (and reading this description), greets, Mario ●▬▬▬LINKS▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬● Location: Hirschwang an der Rax https://goo.gl/maps/W9DQPRmf9CE8HTWW9 ●▬▬▬Credits▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬● Thanks @Hover82 (for plane fillup video from today!): https://www.youtube.com/user/hover82 Credits: Wiener Zeitung: https://youtu.be/yjIr_8aLYWI for parts of Mil Mi 171 and "TeamAigner" on Tiktok (thanks Hover for showing me this funny clip) ●▬▬▬EQUIPMENT▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬● Filmed with: Panasonic GH5, GX8, 100-400mm Lens, or 14-140mm (times 2) Edited on Premiere Pro
