Thanks for the chainsaw safety briefing and highlighting the “circle of blood”...We pushed SOP two bar lengths secure area for swampers. Didn’t hear a lot on why some contract helicopters have limits on troop transport but assume it has been a safety consideration. Trust safety is dialed in before legislator pass new laws. Will they want to start flying in two crews in one trip on a Sikorsky S-64 Skycrane with a people pod?🫣😆 Never forget: 2008 - Iron 44 Fire, Sikorsky S-61N Helicopter crash 9 fatalities on the Shasta-Trinity National Forest.
