Helicopter Fights National
Forest Land Fires In Region
‘““Helicopter 804 is air
borne.”” With these words the
pilot turns the Bell Jet Ranier
toward the distant smoke.
Helicopter 804, based at the
Glassy Mountain heliport near
Clayton, is used to fl%ht fires
on national forest land in
Georgia. North Carolina and
South Carolina.
Although a helicopter may
not be thought of as a tradi
tional fire-fighting tool, the
pilot and crew of ‘804" have
roved time and again that a
fielicopter can be one of the
most effective and cost
efficient methods of fi%hting
fires used by the U. S. Forest
Service today.
Johnny Warnock, Fire
Management Officer for the
Chattahoochee-Oconee Na
tional Forests in Georgia,
stated, ‘‘Helicopter 804 really
helped us out here in Georgia.
This year has been one of the
driest and most potentially
dangerous fire seasons we've
had in years. Yet, of all the
forest l{res that we've had,
very few have burned over 10
acres. Most of the credit for
this small number of acres
burned can go to our helicopter
and ground crews who Put the
lfirt’a,s out quickly and efficient
y.
Between January and April
of 1986, 75 fires burned over
750 acres on the Chatta
hoochee-Oconee National
Forests. The largest fire burn
ed 125 acres near Dahlonega,
but the majority were contain
ed to under 10 acres.
Warneck stated, ‘‘Many
times the helicopter is the first
to arrive at a fire. If the fire is
in a remote or hard-to-get-to
area, the pilot and crew can size
up the situation, and let the
ground crews know what man
power and eq}lllipment are need
ed to bring the fire under con
trol. This saves valuable time
and ensures that we have the
proper equipment to do the job
when the ground crews get
there.”
Three contract helicopters
protect the 860,000 acres of na
tional forest land in Georgia.
Helicopter 804, based at
Glassy Mountain, covers the
northeast portion of the State
along with national forest land
in South Carolina and North
Carolina. Helicopter 819, a Bell

N. C., works to protect the mid

and Helicopter 807, an
AeroSpatiale Lama based in
Copg‘erhill. Tenn., works in the
northwest Hortion of the state.
Generally, the helicopters
work within a 30 minute attack
zone of their home base.
However, it's not unusual to
see two helicopters working
together on large project fires
farther away from their base.
Each helicopter usually car
ries a three man crew —the
pilot along with two members
of the helitack crew. The
helitack crew works as a
firound support team when the
elicofpter makes water drops
on a fire, :
To make water drops,
Helicopter 804 is equipped
with a three by six foot
aluminum tank, commonly
called an “LLA" tank, attached
to the underside of the
helicopter. The tank holds
about 110 gallons of water. The
pilot can vary how much water
will be dumped on the fire by
changing his altitude and air
Motorcycle
Stolen
A Route 2, Summerville,
man told Summerville Police
that someone stole his motor
gcle while it was parked at the

morning.
Robert Delbeck said he
returned from North Carolina
and parked at the Huddle
House around 2:45 a.m and
went inside. When he returned
15 minutes later, he said his
motorcycle was missing.
The motorcycle was a red

sgeed. He may choose to dump
the entire 11% gallons on one
hot spot, or spread it out over
the head of tge fire.
Ronnie Dryman, Air Ser
vice Manager for Helicopter
804 and member of the helitack
crew, stated, ‘‘After we've
scouted a fire, we look for a
suitable water supply for our
water drops. The water source
has to be near enough to the
fire to be effective and open
enoufi(h to allow the helicopter
to take off and land safely.
Many times this means we'll
land in someone's pasture or
field where there's a small
creek, stream or pond.”
Dryman continued, ‘‘For
tunately, most landowners are
very cooperative in letting us
use their water supply.”
After finding a water
source, the pilot lands the
helicopter and the ground crew
unloads hose and lEmmp. The
pum{:. an eight horsepower
fiaso ine-operated engine set on
oats, can fill the 110 gallon
tank in one minute. According

During 1986, Helicopter
804 worked on 49 fires and
droned a‘pproximately 35,000
allons of water. Tom Kelly,
g’ire Manaiement Officer for
the Tallulah Ranger District
based in Clayton, stated, ‘“One
of the most significant con
tributions Helico?ber 804 made
this year was he J)ing to save
several houses and cabins from
burning. Several of these
buildings would have probably
been destroyed if the helicopter
hadn't been theré to wet down
the area around them,”
Warnock agreed,
‘““Helicopter 804 has more than
paid for itself by saving homes
and other buildings along with
the untold number of acres of
national forest land.”

will be leaving the Glassy
