A good video of what's going on inside those wildfire TFR's. It's an instructional video for ground firefighters but their is some good aerial footage of fire ops.
Some of you might enjoy it.

Re: Wildfire TFR airspace
Loved it! Thanks for posting. You tanker guys are the tits!
Here's a quick clip I shot on a wildland fire a couple weeks ago. I spent the entire evening wishing I was flying the SEATs instead of doing high-speed gardening on the ground.
