What Do You Think?...

SCARED

Terrible!Tragic!

Most of All……

IT IS DANGEROUS!!!

The Average Life Fire Officers have…

• “On the flight deck we are the fire department. No one is coming to bail us out during emergency situations. Aviation is a dangerous business, and we have to be prepared for anything.”

• “We put a lot of effort into training and getting ourselves ready, but it was very challenging. When you’re holding training in classrooms as much as we had to, you have to find ways to keep the team motivated and make them understand how important their job is.“

• “When you respond to a casualty you have to know that you can step up and lead no matter what the situation is. There are a lot of moving parts in a fire fighting evolution or a salvage operation. You have to have your head on a swivel and be able to see all of it and control it at the same time.” (Scorza)

and there’s debris all over the field, the last thing you want to do is take a chance of the plane exploding” – Unexpected to see chaos and collisions– All employers got panic because it is hard to evacuate
