NTSB ARFF Recommendations
By Sean Broderick | December 18, 2007
NTSB has released the recommendation letter (.pdf) stemming from the investigation into the Feb. 7, 2006 UPS DC-8 accident at PHL. Of special interest to the airport community are these two:
Provide guidance to aircraft rescue and firefighting personnel on the best training methods to obtain and maintain proficiency with the high-reach extendable turret with skin-penetrating nozzle. (A-07-100)
Require airport inspectors to ensure that Part 139 airports with cargo operations include cargo aircraft in their aircraft rescue and firefighting aircraft familiarization training programs. (A-07-101)
