LFD ordering a T2 Airtanker to paint the ridge.
Not sure where the closest Type 2 air tanker is but I’m sure there aren’t any in California right now…

looks like a done deal on Alert. Always a question as to understanding type or AT’s. Good Stop LFD and LAC
Just repeating what I heard on the scanner traffic. “Type 2 or greater air tanker” Don’t think they need that big for a 5 acre fire.
