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.

About being a volunteer firefighter and NJFFS wildland firefighter: from a retired NJFFS State Warden
Perhaps some of you reading this are wondering what is like to be a volunteer firefighter and/or a wildland firefighter in New Jersey. Others of you may just be curious, as I always am, about learning more about the world of firefighting. If so, then you will enjoy this 39 minute video by PintheQ Productions where he interviews former State Fire Warden (with the New Jersey Forest Fire Service), Maris Gabliks. Maris is also an active member and past president (and former chief) of the Adelphia Fire Company located in Howell Township (Monmouth County, NJ). The gentleman at PintheQ Productions, does documentaries focusing on firefighting. Enjoy.
