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.

Airtankers in Action: CA 2008
I continue to do some background work for upcoming articles. One of which will be an article on certain types of weather related advisories that pilots use called air and sigmets.
In the meantime stay safe and warm everyone. And enjoy this video, footage from Fire Pilots of tankers in action over CA wildfires (2008).
