What is a helicopter fire prop?
A helicopter fire prop is a specialist fire training prop which replicates various fire and rescue scenarios of a helicopter that experiences a heavy landing. The SEFtec Helicopter Fire Prop is a life-sized replica of a helicopter, complete with interior seating. Two versions of this prop are available, one with the helicopter upright, and one with the helicopter on its side. The prop can also be customized to suit our clients exact requirements.
Who needs a helicopter fire prop?
Helicopter fire props are used to train land crews to provide immediate emergency response in the even of a heavy landing at a heliport. It can be used to prepare for both firefighting and search and rescue operations.
The Offshore Petroleum Industry Training Organisation (OPITO) mandates such training for their Helideck Emergency Response Team Member (HERTM) and Helideck Emergency Response Team Leader (HERTL) courses. SEFtec has delivered helicopter fire props to safety training centres all over the world.
The prop is also useful for commercial and municipal airport and heliport fire crew training.
