Air National Guard Master Sgt. Ryan Conti, a flight engineer with the 211th Rescue Squadron, stands with his C-130 King, July 26, 2014, during JBER's Arctic Thunder Open House. The C-130 King is a special variant of the transport aircraft suited to pararescue operations and is equipped to refuel other aircraft in flight from its wing pylon tanks. Conti is a native of Denver. The Arctic Thunder Open House features more than 40 Air Force, Army and civilian aerial acts, July 25-27, and has an expected crowd of more than 200,000 people. It is the largest two-day event in the state and one of the premier aerial demonstrations in the world. The 2014 Arctic Thunder Open House is a proud part of the Anchorage Centennial Celebration.
