In this article and the next articles I will be focusing on sharing videos (today and on the 26th) and an article (on Feb. 28th) relating to flying the A-26. Today I will be sharing a 1945 era training video on flying the A-26 that I first shared on March 1, 2013. Recall that a friend of mine who used to fly an A-26 tanker in Canada shared the video with me saying that he agreed with the techniques presented in the video. Since that time at least one other former A-26 pilot told me that he too agreed with these techniques.

I have blogged about aerial wildland firefighting since 2009. I am not a firefighter and am not a pilot, just an interested bystander who wants to learn more and share what I learn here. Join me here as I blog on the aircraft and the pilots who fight wildland fires from the air in support of crews on the ground. I also blog on concerns affecting fire crews on the ground as well as other aviation and meteorology issues. Learn what it takes to do jobs that are staffed by the best of the best.
