Thanks to todays' Wildfire News of the Day e-mail newsletter from Mike Archer who shared this video of wildland firefighters on the ground and in the air working a wildfire on September 24, 2017 near the San Diego River (near Friars Rd and I-5). Mike shared a link to the Firehouse website where I watched the youtube that I am embedding below.
Direct link to video (you will want to click on "show more" to read the complete description of the wildfire.)
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.
