Charlie Miller, Fleet Readiness Center Southwest (FRCSW) IPT services, is joined by U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Contracting Officer Maj. Samson Borja in a ribbon-cutting ceremony Feb. 16 to mark the opening of FRCSW’s latest renovated particle media blast (PMB) bay in the Building 468 paint complex. Bay 11 is the last of three PMB bays to be refurbished under an energy-efficient $5.4 million project that featured upgrades to fire protection and carbon monoxide notification systems. PMB is a procedure used to remove paint and protective coatings from aircraft and components. Of the three bays, two may accommodate full-sized aircraft; the third will exclusively be used for components. (U.S. Navy photo)
