73, go ahead, we're still showing about 5 miles south now.
00:04
Okay, I copy.
00:05
When you get up here,
00:06
the most active piece, we'll call that the head.
00:08
I'd like to be the head, coverage level 3[5].
00:11
73 copies, coverage level 3[5], via the head and we'll give you a call when we're on scene.
00:15
Copy all. All right. Spring airtight, spring air attack[1], ear to ground.
00:18
Got two tankers checking in, going to meet ahead that came over to Juniper Flats Road there.
00:23
Center to the heel.
00:24
73 got you outside, you got 6.04, they're coming in, LZ[2].
00:27
Blug it from 6.04.
00:28
They'll be flying the right flight now.
00:30
604 inside. Okay, and then we have the power lines to the north there, high tension.
00:34
Power lines. Power lines.
00:35
Yeah, do you have the power lines to the north, probably a mile?
00:37
You got the power lines of the north? Okay, I'd like to view the head and roll it up to the road.
00:43
If you want to take one flank and then have 7-2, take the other flank.
00:46
7-3 has the target, just let me know when I'm clear to maneuver.
00:48
Okay, once 6-04 sets down, I'll clear your end.
00:51
Three.
00:52
Overdee, Italian 127.
00:54
297, overdue.
00:56
2927, overdue.
00:57
I'm still working my way in, but it's not going to be type 1 friendly.
01:01
I was looking to see if we can cancel medic engine 304 and medic engine 302 and also 6112 from our side.
01:11
They're not going to be able to make access.
01:12
And also confirm you have water tender[4] in row or two.
01:15
That's a negative on the water tender[4]s, but we can get two on order.
01:18
We copy no Type 1[3] access, cancel the Type 1 resources, love to produce.
01:24
Yeah, it's a firm, talking with Springs Air Attack, there's no structures in the area, it's not going to be type 1 friendly.
01:30
I do recommend two water tender[4]s for the state mission due to the turnaround as far as water.
01:37
I'll get back to you.
01:38
It looks like it's going to be right on the border of both the state and the C2DLand.
01:43
Once again, I'll confirm jurisdiction and get you notice to tie-up.
01:45
I want to send everybody copies 1130.
01:47
4-a-site, you're cleared on a maneuver coverage level 3[5].
01:50
Need it.
01:51
Number 6-0 4 in sight.
01:52
Retard, do you want to beat ahead?
01:55
If you want to tie you to the road, that's fine.
01:57
We can work that left flank.
01:58
We call it the hill, bottom of the fire, and the head must active.
02:01
Downwind. 7-3, I got your downwind.
02:02
I'll do is I'll still work on being the head there but I'll start a little late carry it down towards that road okay yeah I like that good call thanks
02:11
no assault territory go ahead I got your final clear drop
02:19
Start, have you load and return, Camer Nidino.
02:21
7-2 if you want to grab that tail and work it on the other side of the flank.
02:24
John A.127-125.
02:29
I got you down one. The time 7125 on local Tucson 3.
02:33
Let's go for 127.
02:35
Hey, just want to confirm you're going to let you hit Hot Springs Trail 59000.
02:40
Continue from that entryway for ingress.
02:43
Yeah, looking on the map, it's either Juniper Flats Road or Valley View Road is going to be your best access, and then I took it just due south, and then I just kind of chased that header.
02:55
It's a pretty main road.
02:56
You're going to come to a fork in the road where you're going to dodge south, about a my R2 end, but I'm just sick on the main road.
03:02
I haven't even made it there.
03:03
It's kind of working my way in still.
03:05
Copy did you go to the cattle guard? It's at Bowen Ranch.
03:07
A garden just kept missioning south and then I'm just kind of trying to work my way.
03:13
I'm probably as far as the crow flies about a half mile from it, so I'm getting pretty close there.
03:19
Okay, I copy all coming resources off of Bowen Ranch Road.
03:23
You'll hit 590-hot Springs Trail.
03:26
One of our units will lay out some flagging.
03:27
Yeah, it's looking like 332, 6320 and Brush 306 are on the right pathway.
03:34
For those resources on Captain Command, just look at our location, you can kind of work your way in on based on what trail we're taking.
