Cost was the big thing, turn around time another if remote and hitting the small spot to keep them small. They are great for California fires tho and should be used more. Up here they just can't get down into the fires very close due to the mountains and valleys. I have watched a lot of retardant drops on fires close to me and hitting my Water Tender. Sure hate to have that guy dump a load on top of me!
