The Professional Helicopter Pilot Guide is organized into a topic format style. Each chapter provides a complete discussion of the topic. As such, there exists some duplicate discussion or description of material from chapter to chapter. This was done such that as a reference source, the reader can consult any given topic and receive all of the pertinent information, rather than be referred back and forth to other chapters for needed information to fully understand the topic in question. This document is an introduction to the arena of wildland firefighting, as it applies to the helicopter pilot. For the helicopter to be a fully effective tool in fire suppression it is essential that pilots work closely with the individuals involved in management and use of helicopters. These people are primarily the helicopter manager and the crew, but may include any member of the firefighting team. A helicopter is a valuable and efficient fire fighting resource available to the wildland fire service. To attain the highest efficiency, close cooperation must take place between the pilot and incident management personnel.
