    R.I.P.
    He was a great county executive. As a Pilot, we all felt he had our back and the vision and initiative to create the County Airport we have today. Otherwise we would still have those quanset huts from WWII. Thanks Andy for a great job!!!

    These people are tearing us apart from within! We are all worried about the terrorist overseas, but maybe the real terrorist is our government and those people who are working to dismantle us piece by piece right here on our own soil. I hope this battle continues to the Supreme Court

    We use the method most talking about using Chemfex. We learned a new method when the Chemfex company burned down years ago (Chemfex is now available again though)
    Here is the new method
    Clear the box
    Set up positive pressure fan (we have an electric one for this purpose) - use at a low to medium speed.
    Fan directed to fire place area
    Use dry chem extinguisher and spray in spurts up the chimney til out.
    Precautions with this procedure - The pressure of the fan can cause fire thru defects in the chimney into the structure, therefore you must make a thorough TIC inspection of the chimney to the attic.
    Advantages of the procedure, if roof is steep or snow covered, you do not need FF's on the roof.
