AA says they’re throwing everything they can at the head. Reports fire about to hit structures and FH Road across from High School.

Lots of resources deploying for structure protection.

AA Surprised that 914 was assigned. They’ll take them, but “We’re at our max capacity here”

As an AA you are NEVER at max capacity. Clear them into the FTA and tag on and extend. It’s a lot easier to build line with a bunch of tankers stacked up than to wait on a few on a load and return. Take advantage of the resources you have before you lose them. If you are overwhelmed, get a lead or an air tanker coordinator.

Anyone got the live feed? Look like it timed out

They have a Lead. That’s a pretty bold statement from someone that isn’t up there flying. No need to armchair during a busy and dynamic incident.
