lelebebbel, anything?

Unfortunately ADS-B is still not mandatory here, even on fires. I'd say less than 50% of the machines working fires have it.

I don't know anything about this incident.
TFRs are only put in around the immediate vicinity of fires or fire complexes, so even if this machine was on the way to- or from a fire, it could've still been outside of any restricted airspace.
