Every successful VLAT mission starts long before the aircraft takes off.

A huge thank you to the incredible crews at our tanker bases. While much of their work happens behind the scenes, they are an essential part of every wildfire response. From mixing and loading fire retardant to fueling aircraft, coordinating ground operations, and ensuring every departure is safe and efficient, these teams keep us mission ready.

Because of their expertise and dedication, we're often able to have turn around times between missions in as little as 20–30 minutes, maximizing the number of retardant drops we can make when every minute counts.

To those working the ramps, fire retardant loading, fueling operations, maintenance, and base management: thank you for your professionalism, teamwork, and long hours. We couldn't do what we do without you.
