In the fire service. We called it a SEAT. Single Engine Air Tanker. Unfortunately. I seat and his pilot went down on the Durkee fire. Eastern Oregon. A few days ago.

Am I missing something? There are a lot of fire trucks and a lot of firefighters, but it doesn't look like anyone is putting water onto the fire. Shouldn't the guys in the front be spraying it?

Just curious, did you copy this from my channel? I’m the pilot on this rescue and originally posted it.

I have the upmost admiration for the all the Guys & Girls both Air Crew & Ground Crews of the Aerial Fire Fighting Teams as we had a Coulson Tanker during our Black Sumner Bush Fires in Australia 2019/20 flying a C130 Hercules which Very Sadly Crashed whilst fighting one of the Blazes with the Sad loss of the Three Crew Members (RIP) to them & it shows just how Dangerous it is to help out those on the ground due to Adverse & Unknown Atmospheric events that Create their own Weather & these Guys & Girls would know this & that their is always an element of risk involved when fighting fires from the Air. Well Done People, we Owe you a ❤Debt of Gratitude...❤

The S-2 was designed as a 2 pilot airplane. This pilot shows the S-2 can be down by one pilot. Very very impressive.

In the mid 2,000's, I got to see a Nashville (TN) "Hook & Ladder" responding (oldest unit in the FD IIRC) and it had a MANUAL Tiller, worst yet, this was while they were building the new Symphony Hall (where the Fire House used to be) and building a new Fire House so it was stationed in the Repair Yard and had to make a hard left followed soon after by a hard right from and to on two narrow side streets!) The poor guy at the Tiller was working like a mad man, hauling on the steering wheel to maneuver his end around!!! Perfect teamwork between him and the driver!! >>> However, you can imagine my feelings when I saw this beast "drift" sideways across all 3 lanes of 2nd Ave. going southbound on a One-Way northbound, coming at me, with no way for me to get off of 2nd Ave. at that point (not even a driveway!)!!!! <<<

Fascinating to watch. I never really thought about how different it would be to drive one of those. He literally has to turn left before he can turn right. As a kid, I wanted to be a firefighter who got to drive the back of the tiller.

wouldnt it make sense for the wheel to be reversed? reduces confusion when the tiller heads home in his car
