Maintenance technicians at the Warner Robins Air Logistics Center in Georgia have worked with Boeing to acquire two maintenance platforms that will enable them to work under the wings of the C-17 airlifters more safely and more effectively, reports Amanda Creel. The pre-platform work was done via a man lift that had to be driven from spot to spot.
Air Force depots are not typically meant for quick repair jobs, but during Operation Epic Fury, the service moved some of its stateside heavy maintenance capability forward to fix battle-damaged aircraft closer to the fight.
