That video almost gave me a heart attack. WOW those pilots earn their
pay.

Is this typical?

Some may leave a little more clearance, but not much. To get a large amount
of the water on a small fire, you need to get pretty low. They really do
fly like fighter jocks, especially in mountainous areas, in and out of the
canyons. The plane was designed to be highly maneuverable.
