Fire Boss

Postby pfevrier » Mon Aug 22, 2011 8:54 pm

I fight fires for a living, but on the ground or something from a ladder. I've never done it inside a cockpit, so I figured I'd give it a go. Enjoy!

If God intended aircraft engines to have horizontally opposed engines, Pratt and Whitney would have made them that way.

Thanks guys for the comments!

Chuck, you aced that location quickly  ;D In my neck of the woods we've been pretty busy with wildland fires this season... Texas had some major fires going a couple of months ago, I deployed a few times. As far as the city I work for, with the 100+ temperatures going forever now it seems like we get a wildfire every day... on top of all the other calls... I sure can't wait for some rain and cooler temperatures  ;)

I did not realize there were so many other firefighters on the forum.

I am an airport firefighter by day, and a volunteer in my town by night.

My father was on the firecrews in the RAF in the sixties, Cyprus, Libya, Coningsby and Binbrook. Does that make me a firefighters son??

Nice shots!!! 8-) Which plane is that? It looks funny :P
Most people think that flying a plane is dangerous, except pilots because they know how easy it is.
Arguing with a pilot is like wrestling with a pig in the mud, after a while you begin to think the pig likes it.

This plane is the Air Tractor. There is a package available on SimV if you look for it. Cool little aircraft.
Being a fireman is pretty cool, I work 24hrs on and I'm off for 48 hours. Gives me time for flight simming  ;D

There is no speed limit and everyone gets out of your way. :o And you get a medal for Walking into a burning building.



Good luck getting people out of the way, most ignore or don't notice the lights and sirens.  And firefighters don't often get medals for doing their job.

He's right. No medals, just burns and stories. And people DO NOT get out of your way. They're too busy on their cell phones. It's a hard living, my body hurts, but there's nothing else I'd rather do  ;) What can I say, I'm an adrenalin junkie  ;D

Lol That's disappointing. That gives me even more reason to thank you ;).
