🚁CAL FIRE's Aviation Management Unit (AMU) takes no chances when it comes to the safety and performance of our OV-10 program aircraft. That's why every winter, these aircraft undergo a thorough inspection and maintenance process to ensure they are in tip-top shape!🛩️ The AMU examines every aspect of the aircraft to ensure that it's in excellent condition before it's placed back into service and sent back to its home base. #safetyfirst #wildfireprevention #CALFIREaviation 🌲🔥 | CAL FIRE
