Spray mission's future soars in test flight

Matthew Kilmer, a C-130 system engineer from the Air Logistics Complex System Program Office, Georgia, fastens a droplet sample card to the tail of a C-130J-30 Super Hercules aircraft at Youngstown Air Reserve Station, Ohio, March 25, 2024. The cards were placed to ensure the operability of the C-130J-30 using the 910th Airlift Wing's unique electronic modular aerial spray system as the unit prepares to upgrade its C-130H Hercules fleet to J-30 models. Aircrew members from Keesler Air Force Base, Mississippi, brought the C-130J-30 to YARS for the special project which was performed in partnership between 910th Airlift Wing maintenance personnel and aerial spray specialists, members from the Warner Robins Air Logistics Complex C-130 System Program Office, Georgia, and test flight aircrew from Little Rock Air Force Base, Arkansas.
