Episode Details

Neptune Aviation is revolutionizing aerial firefighting by converting an Airbus A319 into the nation’s first passenger jet-turned-firefighting tank, packing 4,500 gallons of retardant—far outpacing current models. As wildfires rage across the West and fire seasons stretch into winter, this high-capacity, high-speed aircraft will join a fleet poised to grow to 15 planes by 2028. Built for speed, safety, and efficiency, it’s part of Neptune’s mission to combat escalating fire threats nationwide, with their planes already dropping over 5.6 million gallons this season alone.
