Random Ramblings: Aerial Wildland Firefighting

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.

Take-off and Landing a DC-3

I wanted to find a nice airplane video to share with you on this New Years Eve, so I spent a couple of hours this morning looking at various videos until I came upon this video from AVweb that I embed here. You will see John Sessions of the Historic Flight Foundations getting some advice from Don Gryder in his then newly renovated DC-3.

Enjoy.

For those who will be out and about on this New Year Eve, safe travels. Happy New Year everyone!
