Point taken arex. When I laid out CIC, Medford was a kickass tanker base and DC-10’s and 747’s only carried bodies, not retardant. I’m not sure CIC can’t handle the fuel issue but remote fueling (ahead a plane length off the loading area) is sort of policy at CAL Fire bases to improve loading frequencies. Don’t want tankers sitting on the taxi way waiting to move onto the pad to reload.
