I grew up in the province of Manitoba in Canada. The eastern side of the province had the little town close to where I lived as the base for the water bombers. When they first flew in it was in 1975. All of us as little kids and teachers to watched as the big airplanes buzzed us over head. They are indeed impressive airplanes.
