You will be required to take a tour of a nearby airport fire fighting facility. During your visit, you will gather information on the facility’s approach to response planning, mutual aid agreements, extinguishing agents, equipment, staffing, airport category and support, and firefighter training.
Note: If you are overseas and need an alternative way to do this assignment, please contact your instructor as soon as possible.
Along with the gathered information, use these questions as a template. These are some questions you can ask and add to the report either in numbered format or paragraph form:
Name the general vicinity of airport related to city/county/local area. What is the Airport/ARFF index that is required for this airport? Has there been a time when the ARFF Index dropped below the airport requirements, if so why and how was it addressed? What is the staffing, equipment, and agent requirements for the airport? What is the critical aircraft for this airport? What is the largest aircraft in use at the airport? Have there been any Alert II or Alert III incidents in the past 6 months? Describe them, and explain how ARFF responded. If able, is a post-accident report available? What do ARFF personnel foresee for near-term challenges? Long-term?
