CFS NEW AIRCRAFT RESCUE UNIT
rescue5271:
Mount Gambier airport is owned by the council fire/rescue cover is done by MFS/CFS/SES the airport will soon be able to take larger and private jets once they have done some work to runaways.
Some years ago in Victoria the airport fire service was removed from a number of busy airports as a cost cutting measure and control was handed over to MMFB and CFA since then there have been lots of crashlandings and other emergency at these airports. There was talk about 5 years ago about putting the airport fire service back into these airports but the cost was too great.
As part of CASA rule's local emergency services must hold every 2 years a crashlanding training day at the airport ...So how many brigades are doing this with their local airports/airfields???
