So there I am... sitting in a ARFF Big Rig looking at an aircraft surrounded by fire. Fire on the left...fire on the right. I got fire coming out of two jet engines and a wheel well. It is just me and two thousand gallons of water and foam.... Geez I love this job.
We went to Utah last week for our ARFF (Aircraft Rescue Fire Fighter) Training and this was our scenario. It is a long day but there is always that moment when I get to put out the big fires with a BIG rigg and I just think, "This is the greatest job on the planet." I put out all the fires with just 25% of my tank. Yeah!

Just think if you had only used 24% of your tank you could have had enough flame left over to have an awesome BBQ!
not to mention even the instructor was impressed...pass the s'mores.
