Thank you. To everyone who voted, shared and showed up for Fire Boss during The Coolest Thing Made in Minnesota contest, we appreciate you more than you know.

Congratulations to Solventum and the Bair Hugger Warming System on taking home the 2026 title. A product that protects patients during surgery deserves the recognition.

Fire Boss may not have won the contest but we're incredibly proud of what this aircraft does. Over 200 Fire Boss are fighting wildfires on nearly every continent, all starting right here in South St. Paul, Minnesota. That's cool enough for us.

Some seats need more than a refresh.

This one got taken right down to the frame, new foam, new leather, finished with custom quilting and a logo. All done in house.

Some of the best places in this country don't have a road leading to them. No pavement. No trailhead parking. Just water, wilderness and no easy way in.

Unless you're on floats.

A float-equipped aircraft turns a lake into a landing strip and puts places most people only read about within reach. It's a completely different way to experience the outdoors.

Want to see these places for yourself? Talk to our team about getting your aircraft on floats.

Seriously though. Fall comes fast.

If floats have been on your mind, let's talk.

This is what a Fire Boss looks like after a day on the job. The soot, the grime, the wear. That's what happens when you're scooping 820 gallons of water in 15 seconds and dropping it on active wildfires for hours straight.

Wipaire builds the Fire Boss right here in South St. Paul, Minnesota and over 200 aircraft are currently protecting communities around the world. Every mark on this plane is proof it showed up when it mattered.

Fire Boss just made it to Round 4 of The Coolest Thing Made in Minnesota. We need your vote to keep going. Votes reset every week. Vote now, link in bio.

Arrr you ready for this?

The 7th annual Wipaire Poker Run kicked off this year's Safety Seminar weekend with a pirate twist. Mutiny at Maddens brought out the fleet and the good times while raising money for the Minnesota Seaplane Pilots Association.

Already looking forward to next year.

Some aircraft get retired. This one got a second chance.

This 1951 De Havilland Beaver spent five months in restoration, brought back to life on Wipline 6100 amphibious floats and a Hartzell propeller. Now it's out visiting seaplane events across the country.
