We in the mid-atlantic and the northeast in the United States and portions of the maritime provinces recover from flooding after the remnants of Hurricane Ida while extreme drought and devastating wildfires continue in the western United States and Canada. We in portions of the east coast USA have had weather problems of a different sort than our friends on the west coast. The most recent example being that I had a lot of rain the night of September 1st and know that I am lucky to have had only minor inconveniences, this is not the case with others who live near me with badly flooded basements and then there are those who live in areas seeing River flooding. I don't know about you, but I need something fun and light hearted today. So, in the spirit of Friday Fun, usually aviation related, I share another video taken at the 2021 EAA AirVenture. In this video of just under nine minutes by AirshowStuffVideos, you will see US Navy EA-18G Growler Legacy Flight team (VAQ-129) flying, later joined by two F4U Corsairs. Enjoy
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.
