概要

 With more than 700,000 acres ablaze across Nebraska - an area larger than the state of Rhode Island - firefighters are battling some of the largest wildfires the state has ever seen. Firefighters on the ground battle the Cottonwood Fire, extending about 40 miles from Farnam to Brady as the crow flies, they received critical support from the air, including pilots from several Nebraska aerial application services. Brian Wilcox of Wilcox Flying Service in Neligh and assistant fire chief with the Tilden Fire Department, spent two days flying water drops over the fast-moving fire. He and three other pilots, including Casey and Tim Williams of Arrow Aviation in Broken Bow and Flynn Baker of Buffalo Air Services in Kearney, were deployed Friday and Saturday, flying roughly from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. each day.
