DC-10 continues to drop

The DC-10 Airtanker, which dropped a record 99,000 gallons on Sunday, continues to impress fire officials with how much it is able to help cut down the fire zone.
On Monday, the DC-10 released 22,312 gallons of red fire retardant. Other tankers dropped a combined 177,700 gallons on Monday.
Numbers for how many gallons the tankers dropped today were not immediately available.
