RF-A: Before the Drop
U.S. Air Force Senior Airman Andrew Fox, 36th Airlift Squadron joint airdrop inspector, inspects a strap during Red Flag Alaska on Joint Base Elmendorf-Richardson, Alaska, Aug. 08, 2016. JAI's must perform two inspections; one before loading to ensure cargo is aircraft ready and rigged in accordance with proper rigging procedures and an after inspection of the cargo once it's been completely loaded on the aircraft.
