Aircraft Disaster Readiness

  • Knud Jessen (a1)
Extract

Aircraft Disaster Readiness is traditionally considered as a preparation for a prompt reaction to an aircraft disaster situation with the purpose of saving lives.

As all emergency or disaster readiness requires planning and preparatory actions before an emergency occurs, the planning process should include attempts at prevention of the accident as well as a proper rescue plan for any airport, small or large. Further, a rehabilitation program should be included for those who subsequent to the event may suffer from physical or psychological lesions.
