摘要

Two fatal airtanker accidents caused by inflight structural failures last year led to major reassessments of the U.S. government's fire and aviation programs. Signaling a new willingness to accept outside scrutiny of its operations, the U.S. Forest Service allowed an Aviation Week & Space Technology editor to fly on single- and multiengine airtankers, leadplanes, Aerial Supervision Module aircraft, smokejumper platforms and a large helicopter during firefighting missions last summer. This multi-part series explores how the USFS combats wildfires now, what changes are in store and what U.S. federal agencies might learn from Europe, Canada and California, which have different philosophies and strategies. Part 2 will follow in the Nov. 10 issue. The U.S. aerial firefighting community is on the threshold of major transitions that have global ramifications. Initiatives launched in the past year may lead to the acquisition of new and used aircraft, force concepts of operation to be revised, and threaten the survival of some government organizations and private companies.
