U.S. Air Force pilots Col. Matthew Glynn, Capt. Christopher Hicks, and loadmaster Staff Sgt. Sean Silver from the California Air National Guard's 115th Airlift Squadron, drop fire fighting retardant from a MAFFS (Modular Airborne Fire Fighting System) equipped C-130J aircraft above the Dixie Fire raging across northern California, August 20, 2021. MAFFS are portable fire retardant delivery systems placed inside military C-130 aircraft, retrofitting them into air tankers that provide a surge capability to the U.S. Forest Service when needed.
