This was a water bomber coming down to fill up with water to fight a bushfire, it looked like the pilot was lining me up for a strafing run.
Just for clarification and while it doesn't diminish the quality of the image, it does tend to diminish the impact upon opening, but a strafing run is one thing and a dog fight, quite another, always involving two aircraft.
Great engineering on these planes! Are these planes an Aussie product?
Never heard of pontoon planes for fires here? But I am no expert! Actually I am pretty ignorant!

Well it 'could' have been a dogfight if I'd been in another plane
The photo actually looks like I was
But, yes, I take your point!
If you had been in another plane, it would be called "suicide."
Yikes! Those are beauties but where do they load water, in the pontoons? And I'm so glad no dogs were harmed in this post.
All images are exceptionally sharp !
What lens are you using ?
Anyway, it is a great work !
