Members of the 39th Aerial Port Squadron along with C-130 loadmasters assigned to the 731st Airlift Squadron push a U.S. Forest Service Modular Airborne Fire Fighting System unit on to a 302nd Airlift Wing C-130, Aug. 2, 2015 here. It takes about three hours to load and then configure the MAFFS unit in a C-130 aircraft. MAFFS units were loaded onto two Air Force Reserve C-130s in response to the U.S. Forest Service MAFFS activation in support of wildland fire fighting efforts in California and the Northwestern U.S. (U.S. Air Force photo/Staff Sgt.
