S611, you got the pond in sight?
01:01
Yeah, pond.
01:03
Pond's going to be the heel.
01:06
Go ahead and find an LZ.
01:08

Copy, yeah.

If you want a load of water,
01:34
you can start working the right flank near the right shoulder.
01:38
You got the flop across the road?
01:41
On the right.
01:43
Here to take a look at that.
01:45
Yeah, for my kids too.
01:47
Yeah, if you want to go further east, there's a good bend in the river.
01:52
Get you away from the north
02:41
side of the ridge.
02:42
Yeah, I got the it's a ridgetop road.
02:44
I do have the road coming down on the north side of the ridge and we got that little peninsula down there.
02:49
It kind of looks like a booth.
02:51
Yeah, if you're flying over the hill, hills the water at the bottom right below you.
02:55
So that booth is kind of the hill and that two track road coming down the ridge is Zulu.
03:03
This is the head division, Mike.
03:06
Copy the orientation.
03:14
Two little small drainages just
03:24
gave our model roll the helicopters to rotor.
03:29
Helicopter 61163 rolls rotor.
03:35
I was looking at those trains as you're calling alpha.
03:37
They're almost two parallel,
03:40
just coming off that ridgetop.
03:46
Do the left side 1st .
04:51
Just south across there, and that's also been the corridor for all the GA traffic.
05:00
Got to the houses.
05:04
You do have a dozer tracking from the north.
05:08
No, you're up on air to ground having an identifier for you.
05:14
And then Air Ops and C have been helped to be reached by command.
05:24
As seen other gear lights, booking is as reported.

Quarter acre flow rate of spread, central for maybe five acres burning in brush,
05:33
a little bit of timber.

05:55
Was not advised of any orders.
05:58
Both tankers are load and return to Redding.
06:00
Sure, you're only two that you should expect back up, but now ETA on their return.
06:05
Copy that. And do you have a total acreage you were working with before?
