EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph showcases the Canadair CL-215 F-ZBAY, registration number 23, from the French Civil Defence (Securite civile) fleet. The CL-215 is a versatile amphibious water bomber, manufactured by Canadair, a leading Canadian aerospace company. This specific aircraft, with the manufacturing serial number 1023, was in service with the Civil Defence during the mid-1990s. The image captures the essence of the CL-215's unique capabilities, as it prepares for a critical mission. The aircraft's distinctive red and white livery, adorned with the Civil Defence insignia, stands out against the backdrop of a serene lake. The powerful turboprop engines are ready to provide the necessary lift for takeoff, while the large, pontoon-equipped undercarriage ensures a smooth transition between water and land. The CL-215 water bomber is an essential tool in the arsenal of firefighting forces worldwide, particularly in regions prone to forest fires or other wildland blazes. Its ability to scoop water directly from bodies of water and deliver it to the fire scene makes it an indispensable asset in the battle against destructive infernos. This photograph, part of The Tony Lovelock Collection from Mary Evans Prints Online, offers a fascinating glimpse into the world of civil aviation and the vital role that aircraft like the Canadair CL-215 play in protecting communities and the environment.
