I don't want to characterize whoever's sending small crafts into the fire zone(s), but risking having all operations shut down is stupid and, as the authorities said, illegal...

This week is the first time I've heard them called Super Scoopers.  I've always known them as Water Bombers.   Must be a Canada/US difference. 

I can just imagine the french pilots when they hit something.  "Jacques, what da 'ell was dat?   Tabarnac, a drone!"

Just wait until our new emperor takes his throne and makes Canada one of us. You’ll be calling them Water Bombers on that day, I assure you. And you can forget about speaking French, that’s for darn sure. 

Sigh.
