I'm thinking that next time I'm in your neighborhood I should ask for a ride-along

you should check and see, there may be one or 2 of those firefighting HEMTT's at the airport.

the airport ARFF guys did some fire training today in their pit. their training area has a metal full size plane shell with nozzles to squirt aviation fuel inside/around the "plane". I was able to snap a few so-so cell phone shots of two of the rigs getting in some practice. enjoy!

Thanks for posting up those training experiences.

Looks like an exciting moment on your new watch.

Be blessed.
