What's next and review

I am resuming with two articles I have been working on for a couple of weeks: (1) what makes for effective retardant drops and (2) more on how winds affect and interfere with aerial firefighting operations.

Recall that I wrote here that I had to take some more time to do some background research. If you want to refresh your memory on what I was writing about you might want to go back and read these posts:

• October 19: Engine failures with happy endings
• October 21: 40-year veteran air-tanker pilot speaks
