As sometimes happens, I was working on something that I intended to post today but got distracted with dealing with the latest round of winter weather in my parts. So I will be back with the intended post tomorrow.
In the meantime, a while back I found this nice video on youtube by David and Cameron Barrett (2009) some footage from a documentary they did on Los Angeles Fire Department Helos. It is possible that this is a rerun perhaps from an earlier video of the week. But I love reruns, especially about helos.
The video is a little over four minutes and I think you will enjoy it.

For Matt, you are flying in flying in favorable tailwinds
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.
