I actually saw a TV ad for the Winter? Nationals at Pomona .
They're going to use borate bombers with white fire retardent to make the San Gabriel Mtns. look "winter" correct on TV.
One of the borate dispensing contractors has a terminal/loading station here at the airport. DC-10 being one of their bombers, about 3 weeks ago it flew off to the north and didn't return until yesterday. It was no doubt in use somewhere to the north. It's back today and it brought one of it's little Chinook buddies. They haul that borate like they do cement powder, in pneumatic trailers. Quite a process to watch when they get busy.With the fire season ramping up out here in the West, they better save all the retardant they can for wildfires!
