UPDATE: due to the overwhelming response we are working on scheduling an information session where interested candidates can learn more about our program.

Is anyone in the NE CT area interested in joining the drone program with Dayville Fire Co.?

We’re looking for additional drone pilots/operators, and no prior experience is required. We’ll cover the online training course, we will work with you on the hands-on flight training until you’re comfortable flying solo. We are a primarily volunteer organization, with stipend incentive for call response.

Our drone program is a huge asset for the region and supports a wide range of emergency operations, including:

• Structure, brush, and outside fires
• Missing/wanted person searches
• Scene documentation
• Thermal/night operations
• Public safety support and more

Our unit is equipped with thermal imaging, night vision, EO (standard) camera capabilities, a high-powered spotlight, and loudspeaker system for search operations, public announcements, and scene support. We also carry 6 batteries with an average flight time of around 35-40 minutes.

It’s an incredibly rewarding program to be part of, and we’re always looking for more pilots with varying availability to help support the region.

If you’re interested or have any questions, please message us with your phone number and email.

Reminder to keep your vents clear after today’s storm. In addition, if there’s a fire hydrant near your house and you are able, please shovel them out.

With the amount of expected snow fall from this storm, it’s also important to keep your vents and meters clear as well.
