The defunct geo-tagging and photo sharing website Panoramio used to have a bunch of historic Arizona aviation photos uploaded by the user Dief. When Panoramio was shut down in January 2018 and all of it's data went with it, I downloaded the historic photos and I've decided to post them here so they can be seen again. All photos and titles are originally from the former Panoramio user Dief.

Very nice shots of the K-MAX Chris, these things are real workhorses.

Thanks Harvey, these aircraft definitely see a lot of use.

Excellent composition on the Thunderbolt Ross.

Thanks guys! I apologize for my absence from the forum. I finally figured out a good workflow for processing and posting images in a more doable time-frame.

Ross, I'm glad to be back and look forward to shooting with you again. I shot the DC-10 from a business park off Oracle Road at the foot of the Catalinas and the others from Catalina State Park. I got lucky when the DC-10 made a steep run down the face of the mountain straight for my position.

Some shots of Saturday's aerial firefighting efforts to keep the Bighorn Fire at bay. I happened to be in the right place at the right time when one of the 10 Tanker VLATs showed up.
