The beautiful Martin Mars aircraft named Hawaii Mars, coming in to the Diamond Valley Lake to refill its tanks with 7200 gallons of water; it skims the surface of the lake for 25 seconds and is airborne again, never coming to a stop. A very effective air assault craft to fight these infernal California wildfires!!
