The Associated Aerial Firefighters provides a forum to advocate for safety, effectiveness, and efficiency in wildland aerial firefighting. This is accomplished through active programs of legislation, public relations and education.
Goals for 2014:
Continued focus on S.E.E. (Safety, Effectiveness, and Efficiency) as it pertains to aerial wildfire suppression.
Developing a Public Relations strategy to address:
- Advance a clear, attainable, and sustainable vision for the National Tanker Fleet
- Addressing the inefficiencies in the National Dispatch System
- Develope a dialog on the effects to the ecosystem of wildfire vs. the effects of dropping water or fire chemicals on wildfires.
- The importance and effectiveness of the Initial Attack Strategy.
