ARFF training is heating up. 🔥

Yesterday, SGF Aircraft Rescue and Fire Fighting team members participated in a live fire training on the airfield.

“The FAA requires Part 139 airports to recertify in ARFF operations, including live fire training to maintain commercial service,” said Eric Sanders, SGF aircraft services coordinator. “The live fire training is conducted annually, while other trainings are completed throughout the year to maintain our part 139 certificate. This work isn’t just required, it’s important for us to stay ready to respond.”

Joplin Airport ARFF and Branson Airport ARFF also attended the training for their recertification.

What is this, a center for aviators?

The SGF Annual Tabletop Exercise just got a BIG upgrade, thanks to Springfield-Greene County Office of Emergency Management.

Annual airport tabletop exercises are discussion-based simulations, mandated by the FAA to review and update our Airport Emergency Plan every 12 months. We complete ours every May.

But in addition to being required, our annual tabletop exercise is a great way to connect and collaborate with our mutual aide partners, including Greene County OEM.

This year, they brought a tiny town of our airport for the decisionmakers in the room to better visualize the simulated crisis and practice response with clarity and precision.

Next year, we have a full-scale exercise. But these conversations keep the airport and the skies safer, because safety over everything.
