FARP ready at Yamagata Airport
Staff Sgt. Nicholas Wisnoski, 17th Special Operations Squadron loadmaster, turns off a defueling pump for an MC-130P Combat Shadow March 17, 2011, at Yamagata Airport, Japan, during efforts to establish a forward area refueling point there. FARPs allow aircraft to operate at further distances by allowing the aircraft to refuel where no fuel typically exists. The fuel at Yamagata Airport will be used for American search-and-recovery teams during Japan's earthquake and tsunami relief. Sergeant Wisnoski is with the 17th Special Operations Squadron at Kadena Air Base, Japan. (U.S. Air Force photo/ Staff Sgt. Jonathan Steffen)
