Spray course takes off at YARS

A 910th Airlift Wing C-130H Hercules aircraft, equipped with a training-only modular aerial spray system, takes off at Youngstown Air Reserve Station, Ohio, May 7, 2025. The aircraft performed a larvicide application demonstration, using water, for a group of pest management specialists from across the Department of Defense attending an aerial spray application course. The 910th AW operates the DoD’s only large-area fixed-wing aerial spray capability to eliminate pest and disease-carrying insects and invasive vegetation and to disperse oil spills in large bodies of water.
