It was our pleasure @ThatSillyGinge Josh, great to get a pilot’s perspective too

Today I was extremely fortunate to get a look around @HeathrowFire with @jumpjim and @CliffordAgius! A very impressive setup of two fire stations that cover the entirety of Heathrow Airport as well as certain off-site locations in the immediate vicinity.

Thanks @HeathrowFire for an excellent day out, and some really useful insights in to aircraft firefighting. They have some MOST excellent toys to play with as well 😁. This is a @RosenbauerUK Panther HRET (High Reach Extendable Turret), able to reach those places other fire engines cannot. As well as the fire fighting turret the boom is also fitted with a thermal imaging camera. Your standard high street fire engine carries approx. 1800L of water.. This thing carries 11,200 litres and can dispense the whole lot in 2 minutes at approx 20 bar pressure 😳 You can see that @CliffordAgius and @ThatSillyGinge aren’t enjoying themselves at all… #avgeek #avgeeks

@BTTFRS1 There are lots of European airspace regulations at the moment and very recently a lot of bad weather ( when we had had some sunshine)

Does anyone know what is going in the aviation industry? Every flight I've been on this year has experienced "flight delays due to air restrictions" this only seems to be affecting short haul European flights. Anyone else have similar issues or have we just been unlucky?

@SLGEngravers @GatwickFRS If we ever need this, we know where to come!

@HeathrowFire In layman's terms
At every incident the greater the potential benefit of fire and rescue actions, the greater the risk that is accepted by commanders and firefighters. Cont...

Aim would be to extinguish fire with foam however if there’s no life risk, fire service likely to go into “defensive mode” therefore not risking the safety of the firefighters. If there were saveable life then some risk would be taken. It’s called the firefighter safety maxim.

@doobry @Busstop36 @denkmit @HeathrowFire … Any chance you could elaborate on what the aims of the fire suppression are?
