While I am working on an idea for an article that I hope to post this Friday, I thought that I'd share a nice video with you from the National Interagency Fire Center called Load and Return - 2013 Refresher. In the video you will learn about the use of retardants and other fire chemicals, drop heights, coverage levels, types of Airtankers (ranging from the DC-10 tankers to the 600-gallon SEATs)
