Sgt. Wilton Garcia, an air crew chief with Marine Light Attack Helicopter Squadron 367, observes aircraft activity on the ground from a UH-1Y Huey helicopter during a max launch at Marine Corps Air Station Kaneohe Bay, Hawaii, May 6, 2014. Marine Aircraft Group 24 conducted a max launch of 11 total UH-1Y Huey and AH-1W SuperCobra helicopters assigned to HMLA-367 and CH-53E Super Stallion helicopters assigned to Marine Heavy Helicopter Squadron 463 in an effort to increase unit cohesion and camaraderie within the MAG. While HMLA-367 and HMH-463 conducted operations in the air, Marine Wing Support Detachment 24 and Marine Aviation Logistics Squadron 24 were on the ground to provide forward arming and refueling points, giving MAG-24 a chance to work as a whole. After conducting flight operations, the aircraft returned to MCAS Kaneohe Bay and completed their max launch with a flyby over Marine Corps Base Hawaii before landing.
