About the Firefighting water-bomber plane dropping a stream of water, side view, low wing

A water bomber is a firefighting plane that drops huge loads of water onto wildfires from above. Some skim low across a lake and scoop water right through the belly while still flying, then release it over the flames. This lets firefighting crews reach fires burning deep in forests or on steep hills. Trace the plane and its falling stream of water for a lesson on brave community helpers.

• Some water bombers scoop up a fresh load by skimming across a lake.
• They can also drop special foams and red fire retardant, not just water.
