The course is addressed to all the personnel involved in airplanes flights. The training session includes theoretical and practical aspects relating to on-board rescue equipment use, survival at sea techniques, emergency handling, use of fire extinguishers and first aid operations.

Firefighting

Theoretical Aspects

Practical sessions

• Extinction of fire in an overhead locker and use of on-board fire extinguishers in the toilet
• Practical sessions in closed environment (Training gallery) filled with smoke to use correctly protective airway devices:
• Environment with variables paths
• Operation conditions in situations of: darkness, non-toxic smoke, sound and noise (Security checks with infrared camera and instructors’ supervision)

Survival at sea

Theoretical Aspects

• Actions in water:
• Life-raft preparation(video)
• Life jackets characteristics
• How to survive in cold water conditions
• How to help injured people get on a life-raft
• Use of emergency devices
• Helicopter rescue

Practical sessions

• Survival at sea techniques:
• Life jackets wearing
• Entry into water with life jacket and inflation
• Swimming with life jacket
• Survival techniques in cold water (HELP position, HUDDLE position, survival circle)
• Getting on life-rafts in unfavourable weather conditions (rain, waves, darkness)
• Help people get on the life-raft
• Survival on board
• Life-raft leaving
• Passengers rescue through rescue line
• Recovery operations through helicopter and winch
• How to get out from a cockpit of an airplane which has crashed into the water (with life jacket)
