Overview

The safety of modern air travel depends on a silent, dedicated force: Airport Rescue and Fire Fighting (ARFF) professionals. As aviation technology progresses-introducing new composite materials, vast fuel capacities, and larger aircraft-the challenges facing these first responders intensify exponentially. This book, Fire Fighting in Airports, serves as a comprehensive and essential guide to the unique discipline of ARFF. It moves beyond generic fire suppression tactics to focus specifically on the complex, high-risk environment of the airfield. From understanding the geometry of an aircraft and the specialized chemistry of foam agents to coordinating a complex response with Air Traffic Control and managing a mass casualty incident, this text provides the foundational knowledge and advanced strategies necessary for readiness and successful intervention. Our mission is to arm readers with the insights required to protect lives, mitigate catastrophic damage, and ensure operational continuity in the event of an aviation emergency. It is a critical resource for maintaining the highest standards of safety in a globally interconnected industry.
