(triumphant music)

00:15.470 --> 00:16.740
- My name is Daniela Rubio.

00:16.740 --> 00:19.250
I'm in A1C and my duty
title is a RAWS technician.

00:19.250 --> 00:21.234
We basically work on anything

00:21.234 --> 00:24.100
that talks, controls or lands an aircraft.

00:24.100 --> 00:26.638
If there's an airfield,
we're right there next to it.

00:26.638 --> 00:29.500
I like to think of us as the
backbone of the air operations.

00:29.500 --> 00:32.120
So if the equipment is not
working, you can't be flying.

00:32.120 --> 00:33.890
But I'm actually really
thankful for the opportunity

00:33.890 --> 00:36.630
to get to be known as a RAWS technician.

00:36.630 --> 00:38.730
We do a lot of cool stuff
and for the most part,

00:38.730 --> 00:40.330
I feel like nobody really knows us

00:40.330 --> 00:43.130
because we're in the
backside of everything,

00:43.130 --> 00:44.680
but if you get familiar with our job,

00:44.680 --> 00:46.200
you might find something interesting

00:46.200 --> 00:47.770
and hopefully you'll see it down the line.

00:47.770 --> 00:49.480
Be like hey these guys fixed our equipment

00:49.480 --> 00:52.303
or they worked with us,
they're pretty cool so yeah.
