I guess you guys don't watch the news. Flying near fires is one of the reasons we have all these new rules now. Firefighting aircraft can not fly when drones are in the air. There have been a number of near misses. You have no way of knowing from which direction the firefighting planes will come in at, or at what altitude. At the speed they move, by the time you saw them, it would be too late. And they probably would not see you at all. And how would you feel if one of them hit your P3 and crashed into the ground in a ball of fire?
Also, because of people doing things like this, you were in violation of the new laws, and probably lucky not to get arrested.
