Areas
to
be
injec
ted
are
inspected
beforehand
to
determine
the
bes
t direction
of
travel
with
the
intention
of
eliminating
or
reducing
the
risk
of
tracking
backwards
towards
hazards.
Operatives
familiarize
thems
elves
with
the
terrain
before
starting.
The
operational
momentum
of
the
AIR2G2
is
s
low
and broken
up
with
frequent
periods
o
f air
injection,
giving
oper
ators
suff
icient
time
to
identify
hazard
locations
and adjust
to
terrain
changes.
