Heavenly creator, we come before You today to ask for Your protection over all firefighters. Lord, as they face dangerous situations and risk their lives to save others, we pray that You would be their shield and defender. Keep them safe from harm and watch over them as they carry out their duties. Amen.

One thing I have noticed is how poor the accuracy of LA county/City helicopters are vs contract helicopters. Look at the opening drop. WHAT THE HECK WAS THAT??? There needs to be some kind of rating system for accuracy, not close enough with an 80% miss to keep the fire going.

They should drop the water onto the unburnt grass slightly downwind from the flames, thus forming a barrier to stop further spread. To the onlooker, this is not always obvious. Dropping the water onto the high flames looks good, but if they miss the edge it is pointless and the fire will continue to spread.

Rotor-wing aircraft are of limited use for firefighting under these conditions. Too hot & windy to be very effective. They are actually unnecessary at this incident. If this fire was in rugged terrain where ground crews had difficulty gaining access, then yes, they'd be of some use. The most effective aircraft have been the CL-415 "Super Scoopers" which can fill faster & deliver more water per hour than any other aircraft provided a suitable source is near. They were purposefully designed for aerial firefighting but very costly to purchase. Almost all other aircraft were adapted or converted to be used as air tankers. The AW139s purchased by LAFD are not a good choice for this role. Very costly to purchase, operate, & repair, complex to train pilots, & carry very limited quantities of water. The downwash from a large helicopter is considerable & helps to fan the flames as well as aerosolize the dropped water. Blow aerosolized water into an open flame (while outside) & see what happens. The water rapidly evaporates releasing oxygen from the H2O molecules. It has some cooling effect but it won't be noticeable in this intense desert heat. Dozers clearing wide breaks & large volume retardant drops ahead of a fire are about the most effective & efficient means of controlling fast-moving wildlland conflagration.

It takes time to deploy prison crews. The temperature is 110+. Putting people out in front of wildland fires without breathing gear & protection from flying embers might seem feasible to you but it sounds like a planned disaster to me. Firefighting requires training, supervision, & expensive gear otherwise you're just creating more potential casualties requiring rescue & resuscitation. Prison camp crews have their uses but they are limited.

In Monterey county our CAL FIRE rigs were setup for mobile pumping operations where we had the plumbing setup with discharge nozzles on the full peripheray and allowed us to extinquish wheat field fires that move too fast to keep up with a flanking pincer movement so our engine's performed flanking by driving the engine and application of water at the dam moment to cool the Base the ignition point The US Marine Corps has a similar setup on the large outback gunner ranges set in the dry sage brush areas of Camp Pendleton on the Cleveland National Forest in Orange and San Diego county and use 1200 gallon deuce and a half Mobil pumping operations with huge nozzles setup to apply high volume hydrologic atmospheric steam conversion manual transmission fluid electrodynamically linked filing cabinet systems to cool the echo maps Fire records

Whilst not there, the air footage shows a simple case of a drip torch and use of a back-burn would have stopped it on the top side and ring in the rest from road edge, water only needed for blackening top side and mopping up. Not a criticism comment, just a suggestion of the old saying, fight fire with fire.

Please understand this is the middle of nowhere. There are other huge fires. After all the rains from the winter, there is more brush than I've ever seen here. And you cam see it's windy. Fires can start from a trailer chain dragging to a down powerline. It's natural and brutal. I live an hour from this fire. Good luck to all involved!

Those trucks really aren't made for grass fires 😂😂 LAFD should be taking notes from the CFA in Australia that have tankers that can pump and roll with crews working from the deck... and the ability to have surge capacity to all fires.
