One year ago we lost T-42 and her crew, Tom Risk (PIC), Mike Flynn (c/p) and Brian Buss (flight engineer). They were on their way to the 4-mile fire in New Mexico when they crashed in heavy fog in the Oquirrh Mountains in Utah.
I'd like to thank the friend who sent me a link to this article posted today in the Fire Rescue Magazine blog.
Rest in peace. I know that you are flying in favorable winds.
