Airmen watch as fire suppression foam engulfs a maintenance hangar testing the installation’s high expansion foam discharge in the repair aircraft maintenance hangar April 8, 2015, at Fairchild Air Force Base, Wash. According to the 92nd Civil Engineer Squadron, the main fire threat is posed by a fuel spill finding an ignition source, leading to a challenging fire. A 50 foot diameter pool of burning jet fuel can produce a heat release rate of nearly 300 megawatts. A few hundred gallons of ignited fuel is enough to destroy just about any facility that is not properly protected. This test proved the installation’s primary maintenance hangar is ready for most situations. (U.S. Air Force photo/Staff Sgt. Benjamin W. Stratton)
