I can see the meteors mentioned in the URL....
I think the URL got changed. The first story up there had it and the grounding in it toward the end of the story
Meteors? What meteors? Nary a word about meteors appears in article. Gotta be more off the wall sensationalism but then considering the source, it's understandable. That would be one helluva meteor shower to cause grounding of planes. If the objects were still hot and burning that close to the surface then it seems to me the threat of that being the source of ignition for the wildfires would be the greater concern.
The link takes you to the wrong story.
i have never seen nor heard of a fireplane
Evidently you never heard of CL-215 and Cl-415.
