Anyone in a wildfire prone area may be interested in this system. It uses the same type of foam as the waterbombers do, less the red coloring agent.

Just because something has been done and has not failed, doesn't mean it is good design.

That seems to be a neat product.  I believe the key is in the perimeter clearing.

Around here they are now recommending a 300' break.  We watched a fire on the neighboring mountain start at the bottom and go to the top in a matter of 3 hours.  Summer time we are dry and fires move fast but the airport is line of site about 2 miles and I clear fire breaks for us and the neighbors with my Bobcat at the start of fire season.
