What is the salary of a Smokejumper for the National Forestry Service
Good smokejumpers can be found by contacting rural fire stations. They usually have contacts with smokejumpers whom they have employed in the past, and provide first hand information regarding their qualities.
Parachutes and protective clothing are paramount to the smokejumper's success. They use them to arrive alive and then survive. More information regarding this elite group of firefighters can be found by accessing the related link(s) listed below:
Smokejumpers use the same techniques for fire control as those arriving in remote areas on foot: separate the fire from the fuel, cool the fire, hope for the best. Most smokejumpers have years of prior experience with the hand tools and chainsaws use for creating a fuel break (called a fireline) around the fire. On occasion, they may be assisted by other air resources such as helicopters with water-drop equipment or airplanes with fire retardant drops. Smokejumpers also take the lead to clear a landing area for landing additional personnel and equipment, possibly even portable water tanks, pumps and hoses, brought in by helicopter or air-dropped using parachutes.
1st year Smokejumpers make 10 dollars a hour
they do not do any thing and just die some of them kill each other and some of them die .
What I learned from being a smokejumper is that if a group of people are committed to a common goal and everyone works as hard as they can many great things can be accomplished.
