At the Sioux Gateway Airport, the ARFF services are provided for
by the Iowa Air National Guard (ANG), and the emergency response is
managed through the Woodbury County Disaster and Emergency Services
Communications Center in Sioux City (not co-located on the
airport). Part of the Emergency Response plan requires four Sioux
City Fire Department vehicles to be dispatched to the airport in
support of ARFF operations. The aircraft can only be controlled by
throttle manipulation; so basically, it’s not controllable. (Note:
it’s amazing the pilots were able to do what they did! There are
296 persons on the aircraft [crew and passengers]).
Task 1 - Using the Response Procedures from our text
(specifically the Standard Emergency Response section), address how
you would support this crash from the ARFF Commander’s
perspective.
Task 2 – Using the Response Procedures from our text
(specifically the Positioning Apparatus section), what options
(A-F) would you use with United Flight 232? Please explain your
thought process.
