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.
I want to pause and remember the devastating wildfire that tore through Lhaina on Maui in Hawaii on August 8. 2023. I was horrified when I learned of this wildfire and the devastation it left. People affected by this wildfire are still recovering. I am glad to hear that some of the debris has been moved off the island. My heart goes out to the people of Lhaina as they continue to recover.
