ANTARCTICA – Salt Lake City Aircraft Fire School – Night Ops

[will]

Hey guys we just got done with the night operations part of our Aircraft
Firefighting School.

It was nice and cool weather wise but things got hot inside.. yeah
underneath all that fire is a full size mock up of an aircraft..

Someone asked what the fire is.. The simulator is the best in the country,
its a 13 million dollar propane computer controlled unit that detect how
much water we apply to extinguish the fire and shuts the burners down
accordingly.. FANCY!!

1 more day of salt lake tomorrow then on to Denver..

More to follow…

Chris
