Denver, April 81 Army airplanes
and captive balloons will cover por-s
tions Of the National Forests of Cali
ifornia, Arizona, New Mexico, and
other states this summer, to aid in
detecting and supressing forest fires:
In compliance with an. order from
Secretary Baker direct::.:g the Air
Service to cooperate with the Forest
Service in this work, conferences are.
under way to determine where and
to what extent the air scouts will
supplement the Forest rangers. , -
That there is distinct and i'm
portant place for aircraft i'm fire
protection of timberlands is regard
ed by the Forestry officials as be-
yond doubt, but experimental trial
of methods and possibilities will.
have to be the first step. This is
what is, now being planned for the
coming fire season. Existing air.
dromes and bases possessed by the
army will be utilized for the expert
ments. Examples of such bases, near
enough to National Forests to be
used advantageously, are the flying
fields at San Diego, Riverside and
Arcadia in Southern California
Other points in the west and in the
east are under consideration, includ-
ing one near the White Mountains
in New Hampshire.
One Of the interesting possibilities
to be tested is bombing fires to put
them out. 1t is believed that bombs
charged with suitable chemicals can
be used with good results. Another
plan to be tested is transporting fire
fighters by dirigib1es from which
ladders can be lowered to the
ground.
The chief use of the aircraft this
summer, however, will doubtless be
for fire detection. At present the
Forest Service relies for this partly
on patrol, usually by. men on horses,
motorcycles, Or. railroad ~speeders,.
and partly on watchers stationed at
lookout points. Aircraft have many.
points of obvious superiority for
both classes of detection work.
Lookouts in very broken country,
cut up. by deep canyons or where
mountain ridges obstruct the view,
or in fiat country that affords no
points of vantage, are often unable
to pick up all fires quickly by the
rising smoke, or to locate them ac-
curately. For precise location the
system in use depends on Triangular
tion through reports telephoned
from separate observation points.
Airplanes would use wireless in re-
porting fires, as they have done in
communicating with the artillery,
and would locate fires by coordin-
ates in the same way that gunfire in
war is directed to- a particular spot
or object.
From the army standpoint, the use
of aircraft in protecting the Nation
al Forests affords a valuable oppor-
tunity for training fliers and devel-
oping further the possibilities Of
aircraft and the art Of flying. "
