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.

Brushfire on Staten Island rekindles
I took a break this noon and caught this news report from WABC TV in New York that a brushfire on Staten Island (see the article from the NY Daily News on the right side of the page) has rekindled. The Fox outlet in NY (myfoxny.com) was showing a live stream of the fire at about 1 PM EDT.
Update on January 9, 2012. For some reason, the embed code that I used in Sept. 2010 does not work. Don't quite know how to fix it. But I did find the video below on youtube that I believe is from the same fire.
