The principal objective of an RFF (rescue and firefighting)
service is to ?
save lives and properties in the event of an aircraft accident or incident occurring at, or in the immediate vicinity of an airport.
save lives, reduce property damage and to return the aerodrome to normalcy as quickly as possible.
save lives in the event of an aircraft accident or incident occurring at, or in the immediate vicinity of an airport.
save lives, reduce property damage and to return the aerodrome to peace timeas quickly as possible.
True / False:
The RFF service is provided to create and maintain survivable conditions, to provide egress routes for occupants and to initiate the rescue of those occupants
that is able to make their escape without direct aid.
True
False
Choose the statement that is not correct:
The RFF service must assume at all times the possibility of and need for extinguishing a fire which may:
exist at the time an aircraft is landing, taking off, taxiing, parked, etc
occur during the loading of cargo in the remote stands
occur immediately following an aircraft accident or incident
occur at any time during rescue operations.
The rupture of fuel tanks in an aircraft crash and the consequent spillage of highly volatile hydraulics, and other flammable liquids used by aircraft, present a high degree of probability of ignition if these liquids come into contact with hot metal parts of the aircraft or because of sparks caused by the movement of CVR or FDR.
True
False
The extent of aircraft fires which may affect rescue is influenced largely by ?
the quantity and disposition of fuel carried by the aircraft
the location of any fuel released as a result of the accident or incident.
the highly pressured hydraulics in the lines
the oxygen locations when an accident occurs
The most important factors bearing on effective rescue in a survivable aircraft accident is:
I)
II)
III)
speed with which personnel and equipment designated for RFF purposes, can be deployed
the training received
the effectiveness of the equipment
the AAR shared for future operations
Coordination between the RFF service at an airport and public protective agencies (such as local fire departments, police forces, coast guard and hospitals) that may be called upon as supporting agencies should be established by prior agreement for assistance in dealing with an aircraft accident or incident.
The related guidance to the statement above is -
ASM, Part1 (Rescue and Triage)
ASM, Part1 (Rescue and Fire Fighting)
ASM, Part7 (Airport Emergency Planning)
ASM, Part7 (Emergency Administration)
True / False:
A detailed crash map(s) of the airport and its immediate vicinity (with date of revision) should be provided for
the use of the airport services concerned.
True
False
The airport category for RFF should be based on:
the overall length of the longest aeroplanes normally using the airport
the widest aeroplanes wingspan
the maximum fuselage width
the height of the aeroplanes normally using the airport
In a category 10 airport,
I) the aeroplane overall length is: ?? m up to but not including 90 m
II) Maximum fuselage width of ?? m
I) 60 / II) 8
I) 76 / II) 8
I) 65 / II) 9
I) 70 / II) 9
True / False:
When the number of movements of the aeroplanes in the highest category normally using the airport is 700 or greater in the busiest consecutive three months, then that category should be the airport category.
True
False
What does constitute an aircraft movement?
Taxing
Landing
Towing
Take-off
When Changi Airport receives an Airbus 380 (CAT 10, Aircraft) total movements of, 650 for two consecutive month; The Airport Category shall be:

For cargo aeroplanes, a Category 10 aircraft can be reclassified to a Category ?
6
7
8
9
Principal agents produce a ?????? control,
for a period of several minutes or longer. Complementary agents have rapid fire ???????? capability but offer a “transient” control which is usually only available during application.
good / extinguishing
permanent / dissolvent
temporary / suppression
permanent / suppression
True / False:
The amount of foam concentrate should be sufficient to supply at least two full loads of such quantity of water where sufficient additional water supplies are
immediately available to ensure a rapid replenishment of the water content carried.
True
False
What is the amounts of water specified for foam production predicated for Level A ,B & C?
8.2 l/min, 6.5 l/min, 3.55l/min
8.2l/sec, 5.5 l/sec, 3.75l/sec
9 l/min, 6.5 l/min, 3.55l/min
8.2l/min, 5.5 l/min, 3.75l/min
Specify the amount of water & foam discharge rate for a Category 10 airport with foam performance level B.
32,300 Litres / 11, 200 L/sec

What is the objective of the critical area concept?
safeguard the integrity of the fuselage
maintain tolerable conditions for its occupants
extinguish the entire fire
attempting to control the entire fire
Q= Q1 + Q2
What is Q2?
the water required after control has been established and is needed for such factors as the maintenance of control and / or extinguishment of the remaining fire.
the water required before control has been established and is needed for such factors as the maintenance of control and / or extinguishment of the remaining fire.
total water required
the water for control of the fire in the practical critical area
Q1 = ?
Q1 = Q + Q2
Q1 = Q2 X 2/3
Q1 = A X R X T
Q1 = A + R + T
If, Q = A X R X T
What does A stands for?
Practical critical area
Theoretical critical area
Provisional critical area
Divisional critical area
