Detailed to Fulton County Airport (FTY) since 10 July 2016. The position has since been made permanent. As an Environmental Systems Specialist, gained certification authority on the Visual Approach Slope Indicator (VASI), Precision Approach Path Indicator (PAPI), and the Medium-Intensity Approach Lighting System (MALS) with Runway Alignment Indicator Lights (RAIL). Workload includes scheduling preventative and corrective maintenance actions with the appropriate Systems Operations Center (SOC) personnel to assure that the systems are maintained and fully functional in a timely and expeditious manner. Works independently or with a team equally well, capable technician that is proficient in either setting. Highly adaptable and willing to cross train into any field that is necessary to ensure the work center is at full operating capabilities always. As an ATSS 2101 series in the A80 Atlanta TRACON Environmental SSC was tasked with maintaining all environmental equipment that provides cooling air to the building equipment as well as the conditioned air for the personnel working in the building. This includes various components such as York Chillers and Variable Air Volume System (VAV) which provide a constant temperature that keeps the affected areas at the desired temperature by adjusting the air flow in each area. Was also responsible for the maintenance and upkeep for the Dual Redundant Power Distribution System (DRPDS) and associated equipment that provides power to the entire facility. Those components include but are not limited to SATS, PDU's, and Engine generators.

Primary mission is to provide Close Air Support to troops on the battlefield. This includes being an Air Force Liaison with all other branches of the Military and often with other countries also. This is comprised of making sure that Commanders have a good working knowledge of what the weapons systems involved are capable of. As a secondary part of the job, our knowledge of communication is called into play when we must set up remote communications using standard ground based radios and satellite communications to ensure a constant flow of information is processed from the battlefield to the planning areas in the Base Operations Area. We often work in two or three man teams and are expected to be autonomous always. The training involved gives us a breadth of knowledge that allows the JTAC to perform his duties with minimal to no supervision.
