I have spent much of the morning in touch with a good friend on the gulf coast of Florida relaying information to her about Hurricane Ian as they are having a difficult time with communications and getting current information on Hurricane Ian. It therefore seems appropriate and fitting within the aviation focus of this blog to share two videos of our wonderful Hurricane Hunter Aircraft flying into Ian. Before I do, I have previously posted many articles on Hurricane Hunters that my be found here, note these are articles tagged Hurricane Hunters. I also have to be quick because I have to recharge my wireless mouse in advance of a midday online commitment.
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.
