U.S. Air Force Senior Airman Tyrell Thompson, with the 302nd Aircraft Maintenance Squadron, removes a set of wheel chalks from a C-130 Hercules aircraft from the 731st Airlift Squadron during a Modular Airborne Fire Fighting System (MAFFS) certification and recurrent training exercise at Peterson Air Force Base, Colo., April 21, 2012. MAFFS is a portable fire retardant system that can be installed on C-130 Hercules aircraft to convert them into air tankers. MAFFS-certified military units partner with federal land management agencies to provide supplemental air tankers to assist in fire suppression efforts nationwide. (U.S. Air Force photo by Master Sgt.
