Aerial Fire Fighting International Conference 2016 recap

Recently, Bad Wolf Technologies was honored to attend the Aerial Fire Fighting International Conference 2016.  We were able to talk about our new products including the Red Hawk HD and discover great new technology in the Helicopter and aviation world.

The Aerial Fire Fighting International Conference is an important international conference that is the only global assembly point for international aerial firefighters to liaise, develop and promote international best practice in the discipline of manned and unmanned helicopter, SEAT and air tanker operations for the suppression of wildfires. It facilitates and enhances interagency exchange, demonstrates the latest aerial technologies in both a static and live setting, and maintains the vital liaison between international partners in the aerial firefighting community. Since its last staging in this region in 2014, there has been some dramatic and disastrous wildfires. In the United States, the largest wildfire of these was Carlton Complex Fire, the most destructive in Washington’s state history which consumed approximately 300 homes and 252,000 acres (102,000 ha). Latin America has not escaped the alarming results of wildfire either. Both Chile & Argentina have experienced their worst fires in years.
