I am frequently on the prowl for interesting videos to share with you. I found one today that I don't think that I have shared here previously. That is, a 2014 video from the Lakeview County Examiner (Oregon) where you here two SEAT pilots (Jodi Pillatzki and Danny Mosely) and Vicki Baker (Single Engine Air Tanker Manager of Lakeview Interagency Helitack and Single Engine Air Tanker (SEAT) base talk about how SEATs work wildfires in support of the firefighters on the ground. SEAT pilots Pillatzki and Mosely) were based at Lakeview Tanker Base at the time this video was shot on August 8, 2014.
Allow about eight minutes to watch the video.

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.
