BELL-AGUSTA AB-139 (N305FD) - Los Angeles Fire Department AirOps. Taken back when California had huge wildfires in both the Northern and the Southern parts of the State, and I forgot about photos just sitting on a CompactFlash memory card in the camera. Taken from the parking lot at the Griffith Observatory right before the AW139 performed a water drop on fire that had started on the south-facing slope of Mount Hollywood in Griffith Park.
