Who knew RB2009 also tracks endless wildfires in California?
Yet even more value for the money....


(DISCLAIMER: Radar Box does not actually track wildfires nor does it have any fire-fighting capability. Do not depend on Radar Box for fire detection, safety, tracking or to act as an emergency egress ladder. Did Radar Box start the fire? Of course not. Nor can it ever.
If presently you are on fire, do not wait foolishly in vain for Air Nav Radar Box to extinguish you.

It all looks very scary to me - how far is the nearest fire to you?

We don't tend to get problems like that in Lancashire!

We got 'lucky' again - woke up at 2:30 AM last Friday night and closest fire was about 3 miles away coming down a canyon and it was putting flames fifty feet high. We were sure to get evacuated but it went away from us. Wiped out hundreds of homes though, and was 4 different large fires before they got a handle on it.

I saw an Ericsson Air Crane fly over just a few hundred feet above our roof, going 'forward' almost sideways in the heavy winds trying to drop on the fire. Amazing.
