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.

Coulson T-134: scenes from memorial service in New South Wales
I came across a video of the memorial service for the crew -- Ian H. McBeth, Paul Clyde Hudson, and Rick A. DeMorgan Jr. -- the crew of T-134 that perished last week when T-134 crashed: It is a moving video except for one thing, about six seconds of footage from the scene of the crash. I have a policy of not showing footage of crash sites. So, I have (hopefully) started the video after the crash footage. The footage is from Nine News Australia.
The New South Wales Rural Fire Service has a photo gallery of photos from the memorial service on their Facebook Page that may be found here.
RIP Ian, Paul, and Rick. May you always fly in favorable tail winds. My heartfelt prayers for your family. friends, colleagues at Coulson Aviation, and all who love you.
