The C-130 Modular Airborne Fire-Fighting System fleet resumed operations on Tuesday morning.

Operational flying was suspended for one day to review flying and safety procedures, in the context of what is known so far about the crash of a MAFFS C-130 while fighting South Dakota's White Draw Fire.


An official accident investigation into the crash is ongoing.


The MAFFS are supporting the National Interagency Fire Center and its firefighters on the front lines in several states, including Colorado.
