Firefighting Mission - Unrealistic Objectives

ISSUE DESCRIPTION

Description of the issue:
Initial Attack Firefighting missions forcing pilot to fill tanks on the AT-802 to maximum, reducing the aircraft’s performance below it’s effective range, it’s barely able to take off from the water and climb. Furthermore, the “maintain 100ft above fire” objective is completely unrealistic given most of the scenarios, where the fire is nestled in deep ravines and valleys covering in tall trees. In order to succeed, you’re required to fly with the floats touching the tree tops, and then climb out of the valley which is beyond possible within the flight envelope, causing an unrecoverable stall at extremely low altitude.
