Some of you will recall that I posted on May 27th that wildland firefighters from the U.S.A. and South Africa were helping fight the wildfires in Fort McMurray, Alberta. Here is a nice video of the South African wildland firefighters dancing in the airport at Edmonton, Alberta after they arrived in Canada. Enjoy

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.
