This disaster is the wake-up call we've all been warning about for years, that we are not ready. We need to fix this. They need to bring in a real solution, not just more of these stupid hearings and commissions where everyone talks and nothing happens. They need to create a real legislative plan

to actually create a national wildland firefighting service, task force, accountable commission, accountable agency that says we are going to be the accountable conduit for all firefighting.

President Trump and the executive branch should say, I'm gonna appoint a wildfire czar, a wildfire director, call it whatever the hell you want, but I want one guy from the executive branch to support our legislation over here as they craft this to make sure that we build a single point of contact and a single line of accountability So we can fight these fires because it cross-cuts the EPA.

We've got to get the EPA out of the way so we can manage the forests and we can not have to be not scooping water from places we should be scooping water.

They've got to make sure they craft a specific FAR so that aircraft that fight fires don't have to go through these โ like circular carding inspection routines that take them so far from airworthiness in the mission that it wastes time and grounds capable aircraft.
