Despite early warnings of a catastrophic fire season, authorities are still scrambling to get extra water bombing aircraft to Australia. Four jet water bombers called up by the Prime Minister are stuck overseas, unable to fly because of tornadoes and volcanic ash.
Smaller water-scooping planes are grounded in Canada, iced in for the winter.
Some firefighters argue that extra aerial support could have made a big difference earlier in this bushfire disaster, and that Australia should buy its own water bombing fleet rather than leasing aircraft from overseas.
