A C-130J Hercules is cleaned up in the new wash system at Keesler Air
Force Base, Miss. Aircraft from the Air Force Reserve Command's 403rd
Wing fly many hours over the Gulf of Mexico. Salt and moisture could
lead to corrosion if aircraft are not kept clean. The new wash blasts
aircraft with 2,000 gallons of water per minute, emitting 150 pounds of
pressure from each of its 40 nozzles. (U.S. Air Force photo/Tech
