  • ... that aircraft helping fight the Poe Fire in Northern California in September of 2001 were grounded by the FAA following the September 11 attacks?

General: Article is new enough and long enough
Policy: Article is sourced, neutral, and free of copyright problems
Hook: Hook has been verified by provided inline citation

QPQ: No - Not done
Overall: Interesting hook, and an engaging rewording of the information provided in the source. I see little issue with referring to the FAA in its acronym form, so long as its mention links to the article on the agency. I would suggest linking "September 11 attacks" to its respective article as well. Please update when QPQ has been completed. Cheers! —Matthew - (talk) 22:05, 19 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
