Firebomber Into Hell
An exciting new book on aerial firefighting by Linc Alexander
One of the pioneers of aerial firefighting, Linc Alexander has capped an adventurous 37-year career as a fire bomber pilot by writing his memoir. Linc masterfully weaves technical, business, and personal insights into a delightful primer on the history of firebombing. The reader rides "shot gun" in the cockpit as Linc relates dramatic tales about saving homes and lives from raging wildfires.
Linc's contributions to the aerial firefighting community go far beyond his experiences over a fire. In 1967, he wrote Pilot's Notes for Firebombing, which provided valuable guidance for airtanker pilots. In 1972, he published Air Attack on Forest Fires, which became the world-wide, definitive manual on the techniques of firebombing. Both books are now valuable collector's items.
This new book is a MUST READ for anyone interested in fire fighting, forestry, or aviation history!
