The pilots are jettisoning fuel. Not water.

its a 747 modified as an supertanker. it carries some 80 tonnes of water and is meant to be used in firefighting.

Thats not water, its fuel! A 747 carries alot of it and they dump it to lighten the load for landing. At that altitude when dumping it expands into a vapor and it looks like more than it is.

if it IS used for firefighting, then what if they miss?

if they miss some firemen will get wet. but i don't think they'll miss as they drop the water from only 400 feet.

Fuel? Water?! It's a cloud maker - that's what it is!
