Prescribed burning season in New Jersey is over now, the next prescribed burning season in New Jersey, but as I understand it the New Jersey Forest Fire Service (NJFFS) conducts prescribed burns in February and early March of each year, prior to the spring wild fire season, see this NJFFS webpage for more information on prescribed burns in New Jersey.
I saw a nice video, under three minutes, from the North Jersey newspaper on their Facebook account the other day. You may go to the North Jersey Facebook page to watch the video. In this video you will see how the New Jersey Forest Fire Service does prescribed burns. What happens in your State or Country may be a little different, but you will get the idea.
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.
