Deliberate ineptitude


The Russian-designed Ilyusian IL76 Water-Bomber plane has the capacity to carry 16,000 gallons of water, able to put out a fire the size of 10 football fields lined up end to end, in fifteen seconds.



This is over TWICE the biggest US plane used for the job and most planes used for wild fire fighting in the US are much, much smaller and drop chemicals, not water.



Another big payday for the oil and chemical companies - and the bureaucrats and Congressmen who get pay offs from them.
