Forest Service launches infrared fire detection system
The U S Forest Service will start an airborne infrared fire detection program covering 8200 square miles along the Montana Idaho line next week. Four Beechcraft B90 aircraft will patrol daily through mid September, capable of spotting fires as small as one foot square at night and ten square feet in the day. The system allows closing 23 lookout towers though they remain if coverage is inadequate.
