Some shots from my training for my job.  I will never look at school the same.





Just think about us the next time you fly, and hope we don't have to meet.  :)

Remember to study

Becareful and listen to your instuctors every words!!  

 Good for you in becoming a firefighter!!

   And why not train to work at an airport!!

    Good Luck!!

My instructor's words, "Put the water on the fire, not the firefighters.  Works just about everytime."  

Looks like fun... and don't worry, if I ever find myself in a burning airliner on the ground, ill be outta there long before you guys arrive...
Didn't realize that they used mock-ups, although I'ce seen real hulks burned for training purposes... very sensible, as the real ones burn too well, and have to be replaced.

that looks really really HOT

Feels like heaven, actually it's hell..... 8-)

Yeah, real aircraft are made out of aluminum and melt down rather quickly, hard to reuse.  The mockup we used is all steel and has hundreds of gas lines running through it to simulate fire.  They can do amazing things with it.  Its all controlled by a computer and a pyro maniac.

What do you do for homework?

You don't want to know.  ;D

Just goes to show you that you should NEVER eat lots of beans before flying
