Planes: Fire & Rescue Page #3

volume three,

chapter one, section 139,

sub-paragraph B,

lam pulling this airport's

certificate of operation

for non-compliance of rescue

and fire-fighting regulations.

Chew-

Propwash Junction just got shut down?

With no active runway,

how can anybody land?

They can't. That's the problem.

There goes the Corn Festival.

But I already finished

my corncob costume.

Now, everybody, calm down.

- Calm down?

- Calm down.

Calm down? Motel's booked.

This Corn Festival

is what butters my corn.

Brodi, we've already figured this out.

Dottie, show them.

This is Mayday now.

I did the drawings.

We add a new 400-watt siren,

a 2,000 GPM roof turret,

a high-capacity water tank

with integrated class A foam cell,

and we'll have an all-new Mayday.

Get out! He gets rocket boosters?

That's right. Fuelled by good old

hydrazine and nitrogen tetroxide.

Of course, remember,

that stuff is highly explosive,

so you'll want to keep it away

from any open flames.

But he's a fire truck.

Exactly. Go on, Dome.

So, for Mayday to keep his job

and get Propwash reopened,

we just need to find a second firefighter.

What? At this time of year'?

It's fire season.

How much is another

firefighter gonna cost?

I'll tell you how much. Too much!

If we hire one, we might as well hire two.

For crying out loud.

Gee, this tarmac is getting awful hot.

Knock, knock.

Hey, Dusty-

I just...

I wish there was...

You know, I wish there was

something I could do.

There's nothing. H's all right.

I'm old, Dusty.

Looks like my firefighting days are over.

No.

Nov Mayday.

Look, there's still plenty

of firefight left in you.

Look at...

I mean, right here,

"Firefighter of the Year."

Okay. Your Bronze Star.

Old and tarnished.

Like me.

Is this you and an old crop duster?

This one' right here.

Oh, yeah.

Mendocino, 1956.

Oh, '55, '55.

Yeah, I was there. Yeah, I was there.

I got to witness

one of the very first aerial firefighters.

Nowadays known as a "SEAT."

A "SEAT"?

Yeah. A "Single Engine Air Tanker."

You see, instead of dusting crops,

you know, like you used to do,

they drop water.

- Wow.

- Yeah.

Mayday?

What if I became our second firefighter?

You?

Yeah. Dottie will fix you up,

and I'll get certified.

What about your racing?

Look. Right now, we need

to get Propwash reopened.

Me...

And you.

I don't know what to say.

Thanks, Dusty.

One, two, three, lil' jon-jon, and five.

Okay, that's it. That's the morning rush.

Highway's all clear, Duster.

Now, when you get

to Piston Peak Air Attack,

you're gonna ask for Blade Ranger.

Blade Ranger.

You got it. Yeah.

He's their Chief of Fire and Rescue.

He's an old friend of mine.

He can train and certify you.
