For those of you out there (avbug, DC4boy, etc.) fighting fires as I am, this comes as a big blow. Luckily the pilot, ATGS, and trainee all survived. This one hit close to home for me, as I am down in the same area and flying an Air Attack platform. Let's keep them in our thoughts and hope for a speedy recovery.
