Advanced Helicopter+Rescue Techniques has completed Aerial Wildland Firefighting Training with Aviacion Civil Salta. The training was performed in Argentina and provided Simplex Fire Attack System Training as well as Fire Behavior and Fire Tactics Training.
"The training was tailored to our needs extremely well, conducted and adjusted to an organization like ours," said Aviacion Civil Salta’s Jefe de Operaciones, Lic. Eric Ortiz. "Having training with AH+RT helps our organization improve flight safety, be more efficient in firefighting, and most important, to set standards for training and execution of firefighting with our Bell 412EP and Bell 407."
Co-founder and pilot Chris Hartnell says AH+RT’s team has committed itself to improving operational safety industry-wide. “We formed our team based upon a recognition of needs within the helicopter industry for full-service training covering all elements of fire and rescue operations," Hartnell said. "Achieving safe and effective operations has been the core of success for our team during decades of flight and rescue operations. With this experience base, AH+RT knows safety is paramount and that we have vested interest in the success of each and every one of our customers."
Advanced Helicopter + Rescue Techniques offers a combination of training specializing in helicopter wildland firefighting (day/night/NVG), advanced NVG rescue operations, day, night, land, mountainous and water environment flying, technical rescue as well as tactical operations.
The company is working closely with Simplex Aerospace to offer aerial firefighting training and systems installation training.
