Looking for advice on Aerial Firefighting organizations
Hi All,
For years now I have been working as a medevac bush pilot + Anti-poaching ranger in various remote locations (Central/East Africa + Amazonian Sudamerica). Now, I'm looking to move towards fire management work, preferably in a non-western NGO capacity (though I suppose I can't be picky). I have set myself up in Thailand as a temporary "home base" while I begin my search for this. I have had the most success in finding work simply by networking and meeting connections face-to-face, but it doesn't hurt to get advice and leads from anyone "in the know". So I'm asking for any suggestions or advice on organizations you might know of, or even just someone else I might speak with who would be able to lead me in the right direction. Thanks for your time.
