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.

About the Osbourne Fire Finder
A couple of weeks ago I wrote an article about how Downstown's SEATs are dispatched to wildfires. As you may recall an integral part of NJ Forest Fire Service (NJFFS) dispatch centers on their NJFFS fire towers. I'd like to thank a good friend of mine who sent me the link to the youtube video on how the Osbourne Fire Finder works. I learned something and I think you will too.
