Can #firefighting #aircraft still perform firefighting missions in 55 mph winds? #wildfire Firefighting aircraft face significant challenges when operating in high winds, particularly those exceeding 55 mph. While some firefighting aircraft, such as heavy tankers and helicopters, may be capable of operating in moderately windy conditions, safety concerns arise when winds reach such high speeds. At 55 mph, winds can severely affect the stability and maneuverability of firefighting aircraft, increasing the risk of accidents and reducing the effectiveness of firefighting efforts. Crosswinds, turbulence, and gusts can make it difficult for pilots to accurately drop retardants or water on target areas, potentially leading to ineffective suppression and wasted resources. https://lnkd.in/e74TN3zX

💧💧The size of the area covered by water is an important aspect when fighting all types of fires. Cobra uses high pressure resulting in many small droplets in a fine water mist making it a very effective tool. https://ow.ly/Zn6Z50Svqxz #coldcutcobra #firefighting

An attic fire can be devastating for a property and cause a lot of costly damage. Cobra is an effective tool when fighting attic fires since it minimises the spread of the blaze. It also provides firefighters with a safer way of tackling the fire because the Cobra attack creates a significant drop in temperature. See how Cobra minimises firefighters’ exposure to high temperatures: https://ow.ly/WQNg50ShZkm #coldcutcobra #coldcutsystems #coldcutacademy #cuttingextinguisher #firefighting

A firefighting dip, also known as a helicopter dip pond, is a water source for aerial firefighting helicopters. Dip ponds are used when other water sources are unavailable, such as when the nearest body of water is too far away, the local water source is not deep enough, or using local water would cause environmental concerns. If the Rapid H2o is strategically placed near creeks, water hydrants near command locations, parks, and along highways, and can also be easily filled by water trucks, it significantly enhances the firefighting capabilities. By ensuring easy access to water sources, firefighters can quickly and efficiently battle fires. This increases the chances of successfully controlling and extinguishing the fire, minimizing the potential for loss and damage. #fires #firefighters #wildfire #wildfires
