910th conducts aerial spray course
U.S. Air Force Reserve Chief Master Sgt. Don Cutrer (right), a loadmaster and aerial spray system operator assigned to the 910th Airlift Wing’s 757th Airlift Squadron, talks with a participant of the Department of Defense Aerial Spray Course on the cargo deck of one of the 910th’s specially-modified, aerial spray capable C-130 aircraft on the flightline at Page Field, Fla., Jan. 15, 2013. The static display of the aircraft and aerial spray equipment was part of the course, which is a certification requirement for pest management specialists involved in the aerial spraying of products designed to destroy disease-carrying creatures. Members of the 910th’s highly-trained aerial spray team, based at Youngstown Air Reserve Station, Ohio, were on hand to answer questions about the aircraft, equipment and the unit’s mission. The 910th is home to DoD’s only aerial spray mission and the team brought their unique knowledge to the course for the benefit of those participating in the event. U.S. Air Force photo by Master Sgt.
