Borneo Chopper & burnt Borneo (high).jpg

Borneo. Balikpapan, East Kalimantan, Indonesia.
Almost futile attempts to fight the fires, a single Bell-205 helicopter carrying a 1500 liter water bucket flown by 33 yr old U.S. pilot Buck Randolph for the private firm P.T. National Utility Helicopters, flies over destroyed forest to fight a fire in the Sungai Wain forest, home to endangered orangutanÕs and the city of BalikpapanÕs water source.
