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 don't know about you but I always enjoy videos of Fire Boss (scoopers) air tankers scooping water and then flying fires. I long for the day when I can see a Fire Boss up close and personal but until that happens I am happy to watch videos like the one that I shared here for Friday Fun.
