Jesse , Jessey Merritt M

00:03.769 --> 00:07.500
er R I TT I am a senior airman . I

00:07.510 --> 00:11.270
am um it's hydraulics or NRAS , but we

00:11.279 --> 00:14.020
go just by hydraulics and we're with

00:14.029 --> 00:16.260
the 152nd maintenance squadron . So

00:16.270 --> 00:18.326
first thing in the morning , we just

00:18.326 --> 00:20.381
check out tools and then go over any

00:20.381 --> 00:22.760
aircraft discrepancies , see what needs

00:22.770 --> 00:24.992
to be fixed and then just go fix things

00:24.992 --> 00:27.270
on a priority basis . What's the worst ?

00:27.270 --> 00:29.700
Our role here for maps is to support

00:29.709 --> 00:31.829
the plane , any hydraulic brakes that

00:31.840 --> 00:33.951
will happen , we can go out there and

00:33.951 --> 00:36.062
fix them hopefully efficiently enough

00:36.062 --> 00:38.062
to get them up in the air again and

00:38.062 --> 00:40.118
ready for the mission . Working with

00:40.118 --> 00:42.229
the civilian side , the forestry side

00:42.229 --> 00:44.396
or even other units . It's good to get

00:44.396 --> 00:46.562
connections with people to learn who's

00:46.562 --> 00:48.673
training differently and just get the

00:48.673 --> 00:50.840
extra help , extra hands . Yeah , it's

00:50.840 --> 00:52.840
good to work with other units we've

00:52.840 --> 00:54.896
contacted with Wyoming . So if we go

00:54.896 --> 00:56.951
out to a plane , if it's our plane ,

00:56.951 --> 00:59.173
they can help us . If it's their plan ,

00:59.173 --> 00:58.900
I can go and help them and just kind of

00:59.000 --> 01:01.479
cross train and see how each unit does

01:01.490 --> 01:03.657
everything differently . Hydraulics is

01:03.657 --> 01:05.879
important . To the maps mission because

01:05.879 --> 01:08.101
it's needed in any general flight , its

01:08.199 --> 01:10.199
powers your landing gear and flight

01:10.199 --> 01:12.421
controls . So as long as your hydraulic

01:12.421 --> 01:14.643
system isn't broken , the plane can fly

01:14.643 --> 01:16.532
and do any mission that is needed

01:16.532 --> 01:16.199
specifically here at Maps .
