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.

A Tribute to all wildland firefighters in the air and on the groud
Direct Link to Video
This video by 664 Freedom was done in 2008 and expresses in photos my heartfelt gratitude for all that you in the wildland firefighting community do to keep us safe. You will see groundpounders, smokejumpers, helos, and airtankers of various sizes. Remember that the airtankers and helos work to support the firefighters on the ground by putting the retardant or the water where it is needed.
