1 Southeast Arizona Zone Wildfire Aviation Operations
2 Southeast Arizona Zone The western United States is divided into wildfire suppression zones. Each zone has its own interagency wildland fire fighting resources comprised of fire fighters and equipment from the federal, state, and tribal agencies within the Zone. The Southeast Arizona Zone extends from roughly south of the Gila River to the U.S. - Mexico border, and from east of Yuma to the Arizona - New Mexico border.
3 Southeast Arizona Zone Fire fighting aircraft operate over wildfires throughout the United States to protect public lands, natural resources, and private property. In southeast Arizona, state and federal agencies which use aircraft for wildland fire fighting include: Arizona State Forestry Bureau of Indian Affairs Bureau of Land Management Fish and Wildlife Service National Park Service U.S. Forest Service
4 Fire Fighting Aircraft Wildland fire agencies operate multiple types of aircraft for fire fighting. A variety of fixed and rotor wing aircraft fly to and from fires to drop fire suppressants, conduct aerial reconnaissance, and transport fire fighting personnel and cargo. Types of fire aircraft include
5 VLAT Very Large Airtanker McDonnell Douglas DC-10 Misha Oordijk airliners.net Airtankers drop fire suppressants such as water, foam, and retardant to limit a fire's spread.

10 Aerial Coordination Aircraft Referred to as 'Air Attack', a variety of light twin engine aircraft are used to manage airspace over a wildfire and coordinate use of fire aircraft with fire fighters on the ground. Air Attack consists of an aircraft, pilot, and an aerial attack supervisor. Ponderosa Aviation - flickr (Click to watch an Air Attack at work over a wildfire)

13 Aerial Fire Fighting Environment The flight environment at a wildfire is dynamic. Atmospheric conditions, aircraft activities and airspace requirements contribute to the complexity of a fighting a fire. Mark Harris gettyimages
14 Weather Fires may develop convective columns similar to thunderstorms that shoot upwards several thousand feet. Updrafts and downdrafts from the columns can produce extreme turbulence and strong winds in and around a fire. Smoke from wildfires can cause visibility to drop to near zero.

15 Congested Airspace Eric Paul Zamora The Fresno Bee Air operations become complex when multiple fire fighting aircraft are active within a fire area.
16 Fire Traffic Area FIREFTA TRAFFIC AREA Diagram 2,500 AGL Controlling Aircraft Orbit 2500 AGL Minimum The Fire Traffic Area (FTA) provides for separation of fire aircraft over a wildland fire. Although the FTA is designed for wildland firefighting operations, the structure and communications requirements are patterned after Class D airspace. The FTA is unique to fire management agencies; it is not part of the National Airspace System and is used only when multiple fire fighting aircraft are operational over a fire. Airtankers typically drop at ' agl Airtankers Orbit 1500 AGL Minimum 1,500 AGL Airtanker Manuevering 1000 AGL Maximum 1,000 AGL Helicopter Operations 500 AGL Maximum 500 AGL Surface 5 nm 0 5nm
17 Temporary Flight Restrictions Temporary Flight Restrictions are requested for a wildfire when aviation operations involve multiple fire fighting aircraft. The flight restrictions provide a designated airspace to separate fire aircraft from civilian and military aviation. TFRs generally extend 5 nautical miles from the center point of a fire and up to 3,000 feet above the highest terrain at a fire. Temporary Flight Restrictions may not exist over all wildfires when fire fighting aircraft are present.
18 Aerial Support Bases Airtanker Bases Helicopter Bases Airtanker bases support fire fighting operations by supplying airtankers with fire suppressants. Airtankers normally transit between a tanker base and wildfire at low altitudes. Helicopter 'Helibases' are established close to a large wildfire to support wildfire operations and to speed the transport of personnel and supplies. Helicopters conduct low level flights between helibases and fires. WILDFIRE HELIBASE AIRTANKER BASE USFS - Plumas NF photo USFS - Custer Gallatin NF photo

20 Wildfire Aviation Operations Fire pilots typically operate aircraft from a few hundred to a few thousand feet above ground level. They have to coordinate their actions with ground personnel, watch out for terrain, monitor fire activity, and remain aware of other aircraft. You can help our wildland aviation operations by watching for fire fighting aircraft and by maintaining safe distances from wildfires. To report a wildfire in southeast Arizona contact the Prescott Flight Service Station or Tucson Interagency Dispatch (24 hrs). For information on where to report fires outside southeast Arizona visit the Southwest Area Coordination Center website: Only you can prevent Aviation Mishaps Produced by Tucson Interagency Dispatch Center 2646 E.
