The FAA has posted an update to the advisory circular for training airport rescue and firefighting employees that provides guidance to airport operators on how to meet the FAA’s requirements.
The updated advisory circular includes new information on training facilities, and a new paragraph and numbering system to make the document easier to read and reference.
To help airport rescue and firefighting personnel meet minimum standards, the FAA publishes a list of qualified training facilities and reference materials. FAA personnel will review the training list quarterly and make any updates in an addendum and post it online. The addendum will replace the old Appendix in which the training facilities were previously located.
This AC and the current addendum of training facilities are available online at http://www.faa.gov/airports/resources/advisory_circulars/.
