I recently received some inquiries about what an Alert 2 is so I thought I would let you know. An Alert 2 is “An aircraft that is known or suspected to have an operational defect that affects normal flight operations to the extent that there is danger of an accident.”

Walk around Olathe Fire Department's #Enforcer #WalkInHDR with Captain William Holt. A portable winch paired with 360-degree attachment points provides the department with operational capability on all sides of the apparatus. Watch the full walk around: youtu.be/oGt8fhIqRiM
