firefighters responding directly to incidents without the aid of large-scale vehicles or automated systems. This includes tasks like deploying hose lines, entering structures or aircraft by foot, and conducting internal firefighting, search, and rescue operations. At an airport like Heathrow, where time and precision are critical, these firefighters are trained to operate swiftly and efficiently in high-pressure environments, often working in confined spaces or complex aircraft layouts. Their presence ensures that firefighting efforts are immediate, adaptable, and directly controlled at the source of the incident.
The Rosenbauer Panthers used at Heathrow are cutting-edge airport crash tenders designed for rapid, high-impact response to aviation emergencies.
