Since we now have the possibility to stop fire effects, DonRudi and me have made up a quick example how to to a fire fighting mission. It contains both a UH-1H and a Mi-8MT.
Requires the Cargo Mod by upuaut for the bambi bucket and the Syria Map.
You can get the Cargo mod here:

Here's the basic task: Pick up the bambi bucket as a sling load, then hover over the sea (not the lake, just the sea is set as a trigger zone) until you get the message that the bucket has been filled up. Be aware that the bambi bucket MUST NOT actually touch the water. At the moment, it would be damaged. But you have to hover really low for some time in order to fill up the bucket.
Then, head to the fire. It's quite easy to find ;)
Directly above the flames, you have to press [SPACEBAR] to drop the water. (If you want, you could modify the mission with a seperate trigger zone to compensate for wind)
The fire need two hits to go out. Thats why you have to head back to the sea, next to the place where you have picked up the bucket, and refill the basket.
You are free to modify it - you could place the fire and smoke elsewhere, add additional fires, or add fire that spreads if the player does not work not quick enough, for example.
