Description

City of North Bend release - Firefighters from the North Bend Fire Department participated in specialized training this week with the Aircraft Rescue and Firefighting (ARFF) team at the Southwest Oregon Regional Airport. The collaborative training focused on preparing firefighters to handle aircraft-related emergencies.  Key components of the training included aircraft familiarization, managing aircraft incident operations, and responding to crash scenarios, such as extricating patients from wreckage. These exercises are critical for equipping firefighters with the skills needed to address high-risk, low-frequency incidents that require specialized knowledge and rapid response.  “This type of hands-on, realistic training is invaluable,” said North Bend Fire Chief Jim Brown. “It ensures our firefighters are prepared to serve the community effectively during emergencies.”  The North Bend Fire Department expressed gratitude to the ARFF team for their partnership and the opportunity to enhance their readiness for rare but potentially devastating incidents.
