organization's role in the event of an emergency
Airport layout - correct answer-The key factor in determining the most appropriate response
route fir ARFF aparatus

Base leg - correct answer-Flight path at a right angle to the landing runway off the approach
end
Blue LIGHTS - correct answer-Outline taxiways
Bomber aircraft - correct answer-Large quantity of air to ground weapons
4-8 engines
Crew: 8 people
Weapons: internally or externally carried
Significant fuel capacity and explosives
Business/ corporate aviation aircraft - correct answer-Customized by user
Cargo aircraft - correct answer-Transports cargo

19-100 people
Turboprop engines
Controlled access areas include: - correct answer-Designated Isolation areas, ILS areas and
fuel storage areas
Controlled access point - correct answer-Area where access is limited to essential
personnel. Identified by a solid red hold line, a white dashed line or a mandatory sign

Critical Rescue and Fire Fighting Access Area (CRFFAA) - correct answer-500ft from each
side of the runway and 3300ft beyond each runway end
Crosswind leg - correct answer-The flight path at a right angle to the landing runway off its
upwind leg
Designated isolation areas (DIA) - correct answer-Predetermined for temporary parking of
aircraft experiencing problems. Also hijacked aircraft, bomb threat, or terrorist attack.
Downwind leg - correct answer-The flight path parallel to the landing runway in the direction
opposite to landing, typically connecting the cross wing and base leg
Elevator - correct answer-Horizontal stabilizer
Emergency vehicles parked near or in front of terminals during periods of elevated threat
levels should be parked at least __ft apart - correct answer-10ft
Engineered Material Arresting System (EMAS) - correct answer-A bed of aerated cement
material that is designed to crush under the aircraft weight to provide a predictable
deceleration of an aircraft
Fighter and attack aircraft - correct answer-Weapons systems
Equipped with canopy removal systems
Final approach - correct answer-The portion of the pattern in which the aircraft is lined up
with the runway and is heading straight in to land
Firefighting aircraft - correct answer-Fixed with storage tanks for agent (800-3000gal).
Helicopters can transport firefighters as well as carry agent in buckets or internal tanks
(100-1000gal)
