CAL FIRE ID's pilot

I wrote earlier today about the crash of CAL FIRE Tanker 81. A couple of hours ago, CAL FIRE Department Information Officer Daniel Berlant tweeted that the pilot of of T-81 that crashed on October 7 has been identified as Geoffrey “Craig” Hunt, 62 of San Jose, CA.

I offer my heartfelt prayers and condolences to Craig's family, friends, colleagues, and all who love him. Craig, may you always fly in favorable tail winds.
