Intentional Omissions

This training does not cover all significant factors discussed in the Thirtymile Fire Investigation Report.
Competition for attention with the larger Libby South fire, management decisions, use of aviation resources, communication problems, leadership issues, fatigue, lack of situation awareness, lack of crew cohesiveness, and other important factors were not covered during the chronology of fire events.
This training focuses on the events immediately before and during the entrapment, when decisions by supervisors could have prevented the entrapment or saved lives.
