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.

Tribute in honor of the Notre Dame Cathedral in Paris

Like many of you, I have been following the fire that burned in the Notre Dame Cathedral in France on Monday night (April 15th). Some 400 Parisian firefighters fought the blaze, one was badly injured. I want to take the opportunity to thank all of the Parisian Firefighters who worked the fire over night, at great risk to themselves to save Notre Dame and the artifacts inside. I am glad that Notre Dame is still standing, albeit wounded. I want to take this day to pause and stand in remembrance and solidarity with the people of France to honor Notre Dame. Notre Dame is special.
