Aviation Education Programme Trip to Farnborough Airport and Fire Station




On Saturday 7th May we were incredibly lucky to be invited to Farnborough Airport and Fire Station. The day began early with a briefing from Pete about what the day had in store for the group.


The group then had an amazing day climbing over fire trucks, firing the water canons and hoses, taking part in the hose drill and going deep under ground into the smoke filled 'rat run' where they had to rescue 'Billy.'






The group then made their way over to the Airport Terminal and the hangars where they had a look at the very swish private jets housed there.  


The group were presented with certificates at the end of the day - all with big smiles on their faces.


We'd all like to say a massive thank you to Pete and the team of fire fighters.  They made our day very special.  In the words of Matt 'It was one of  the best day of my life!'
