I’m in Huasna, helping protect a family ranch. I was there when it blew up. Pretty impressive for June.
From AA 153 acres
AA requested VLAT
What app is this?
IA thread is started
All updates on the fire should go there.
Its ATAK i sent a DM.
Still looks nasty on the cameras, are they getting a hold of it?
They still have 1 VLAT, 2 LATs and 3 S-2’s assigned.
Might be only so much airspace.
I was thinking that or just time in the air
This incident and the one in NEU are drawing a lot of air resource requests. Trying to free up available aircraft for re-assignment.
TCU running a fire has Columbia tied up for a while.
Need some tankers available for IA since the Johnson fire in tcu now has Columbia tied up.
The Columbia tankers came off of the owens fire in MMU
Guessin’ the ramp at SMX is a wee bit busy — but it’s nice that 910 isn’t having to reload in San Berdoo…
Neither of those are the Ramona Tankers. T-70 from Ramona is on the Camino(I suspect they have a trainiee).
T-80 came from Hollister, and T-100 is the spare and probably came from Columbia or Hollister.
I believe T-76 was replaced with T-70 because it’s a training ship, but I might’ve misheard that traffic
Quite a bit of air resources indeed. This was after 76/78 were released and 910 is currently on the ground
910 is already back in the air… only off the fire for 30ish from drop to return. Not too shabby
