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.
Over the last several days Neptune Aviation Services tanker pilots and their fleet of BAe 146 aircraft and lead planes have been undergoing training in preparation for the upcoming wildfire season. I do not know when the first of Neptunes BAe 146 air tankers goes on contract, probably soon.
