## Caption

The U.S. Forest Service, CAL FIRE, C-130 crews from four states and other agencies are at Gowen Field this week for aerial wildland firefighting training and certification.

During wildfire suppression operations, military C-130s equipped with MAFFs can drop up to 3,000 gallons of retardant on wildfires. They can discharge their entire load in less than five seconds, covering an area one-quarter of a mile long by 100 feet wide, or make variable drops.
