Random Ramblings: Aerial Wildland Firefighting

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.

Neptune Aviation's BAe-146 Tanker: a cockpit tour

I am always interested in tanker and helo videos that take me up close and personal into their operations on a wildfire. I found a nice YouTube by Blancolirio video courtesy of Neptune Aviation's Facebook Page (they have great photos). From time to time I have seen some of Blancolirios videos and Youtube and have enjoyed them. So when I saw that Neptune Aviation had shared his video of a cockpit tour of their BAe-146, I knew that I had to check it out and share it with you. Allow a little less than eight minutes to watch the video.
