I am taking a day off today to have some fun and play a little. I was looking around for a tanker video to share with you I found the following video through my friends at the New Jersey Forest Fire Service Section B-10's fire videos of the week page. Each week they share four new wildland firefighting videos. Depending on when you read this and access the NJFFS Section B-10 webpage, you may see a new set of videos. If so, they will be worth watching.
This is a nice video, a little under five minutes of a pair of CL-415's working fires and scooping water along with some cool cockpit shots.

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.
