AERODROME
EMERGENCY PLANNING
Presented By SK Soni
Asstt. Gen. Mgr. (Ops) AAI

WHAT IS AN «AIRPORT EMERGENCY
PLAN»
What is AEP?
The process of preparing an
aerodrome to cope with an
emergency occurring at the
aerodrome or in its vicinity.
What are the objective(s) of AEP?
To minimize the effects of an
emergency, particularly in
respect of saving lives and
maintaining aircraft operations

ICAO Provisions on AEP
What do the AEP contain?
The aerodrome emergency plan
sets forth the procedures for
coordinating the response of
different aerodrome agencies
(or services) and of those
agencies in the surrounding
community that could be of
assistance in responding to the
emergency.

Examples of emergencies
‐ 6 types involving aircraft
‐ 5 types not involving aircraft
‐ 3 types compound emergencies

 INVOLVING aircraft:
1. Acft accident on‐airport
2. Acft accident off‐airport (land and water)
3. Acft incident in flight (turbulence,
decompression and structural failure)
4. Acft incident on ground
5. Acft incident (sabotage/bomb threats)
6. Acft incident (unlawful seizure)

• NOT INVOLVING aircraft:
1. Structural fire
2. Sabotage/bomb threat
3. Natural disaster
4. Dangerous goods
5. Medical emergencies/ pandemics

COMPOUND emergencies:
1. Acft/structures
2. Acft/fuelling facilities
3. Aircraft/aircraft

Structure of Airport Emergency Plan (AEP)
• Each airport has its individual needs & peculiarities
• Political, jurisdictional and agency differences may
exist and continue but the basic needs and concepts
of emergency planning must always evolve around
these 3 Cs :-
* Command & Control
* Coordination
* Communication

Structure of Airport Emergency Plan (AEP)
• AEP shall provide co-
ordination of the
actions to be taken in an
emergency occurring at
- at an airport
- in its vicinity

Structure of AEP
• The AEP should give clear instructions to ensure the
prompt and efficient actions of each responding
agency e.g. rescue and fire-fighting services, police,
medical services, etc.
• A comprehensive AEP must consider
* pre-planning BEFORE an emergency
* operations DURING an emergency
* support and documentation AFTER an
emergency

Structure of AEP
• Pre-planning BEFORE an emergency
* Planning for handling all foreseeable
emergencies that could occur to cripple
normal airport operations.
* list these emergencies and identify the
resources needed to tackle the individual
emergency in the most effective and
“productive” way.

Structure of AEP
• Operations DURING an emergency
* considerations depend on the stage,
nature and location of the emergency
and adapt to changes in an emergency
e.g. change in command and control
authority or dramatic change or
worsening of situation.

Structure of AEP
• Support and documentation AFTER an emergency
* not as urgent as preceding events
* transition of authority and responsibility
after mitigation actions must be planned
in advance
* documentation of an emergency operations
will help gathering and organising for various
post-accidents reports

Structure of AEP
• Airport Emergency Planning must be
implemented similarly for off-airport aircraft
accident and incident.
• Only a change of jurisdiction viz.
* Within Airport Boundary – Airport
Authority Overall In-Charge
* Outside Airport Boundary – Pre-
arranged Mutual Aid Agency

Referrals
• ICAO SARPs
Annex 14, Volume -1 , Chapter-9-
Standards & Recommended Practices for
emergencies & other services.
“----- an airport emergency plan
must be established to commensurate
with airport operations-------- “
In accordance with the provisions in
Annex.14 Volume-I (Aerodromes) States
are required to establish at every airport
an emergency plan commensurate with
the aircraft operations and other
activities conducted at the airport.

Referrals
• Airport Service Manual Part-7
(Airport Emergency Planning) (Doc
9137-AN/898) is the ICAO document
on the subject.
• The material in this manual relates
principally to matters concerning pre-
planning for airport emergency, as
well as coordination between
different airport agencies and those
agencies in the surrounding
community that could be of
assistance in responding to the
emergency.
• It does not include material on how
an agency is to carry out its particular
function such as those of the rescue
and fire fighting services or air traffic
control services.

AAI Policy on implementation of AEP
• On airport accident – AAI will be in command and
mutual aid agencies will assist.
• Off airport accident – Agency in command will the
agency agreed upon in the mutual aid to emergency
agreement pre-arranged with the surrounding
community. This arrangement however should not
affect the immediate response by airport personnel
or by the agencies having role in Airport Emergency
Plan.

• In case of aircraft accident off airport, but in
the vicinity of the airport, Airport Fire Services
are required to play a role in fire fighting and
rescue operation.
• For this purpose, area upto 5 km in the
approach path and other areas, 2 km around
the airport boundary, is defined as the vicinity
of the airport.

 If an aircraft accident occurs in the vicinity of the
airport, following action will be taken by the Airport
Fire Fighting & Rescue Services :
1)One CFT and One ambulance will proceed to the
accident site if the aircraft is of the length less than
39m and fuselage width upto 5m.
2)Two CFT and one ambulance (from Cat.9 Airport) /
One CFT, one AFFRV and One Ambulance (from Cat.8
Airport) will proceed to the accident site, if the
aircraft is of the size larger than what is stated in (i)
above.

• One JFO will lead the turn out
• Spare serviceable CFT should be manned by
deploying off duty crew, where available, to
maintain the maximum possible category of
airport.

• When the category of the airport is lowered
than the declared category, this information
should immediately be passed on to ATC.
• On re-establishing the declared category, ATC
will again be informed promptly.
(Reference operational circular no.3 of 1999
on “role of airport fire services during aircraft
crash off airport”)

• In case the aircraft accident occurs, beyond the
vicinity of the airport, normally no CFT should be
sent to the accident site.
• In case of off airport aircraft accident, when city fire
services are available at the site, the overall
command will be exercised by the senior most
official of the city Fire Brigade available at the site.

Contents of AEP
• The aerodrome emergency
plan document should
include at least the
following :
a) types of emergencies
planned for;
b) Agencies involved in the
plan;

immediate vicinity.

Types of emergencies
• Visibility – Visibility reduces to 2500m or
below and / or cloud base is 450m or when
more than 4/8
• Local Stand By – When an aircraft is known or
suspected to have developed some defect but
the trouble is not such as would normally
involve any serious difficulty in effecting safe
landing.

• Full Emergency – When it is
known that an aircraft
approaching the airport is or
is suspected to be in such a
trouble that there is a
possibility of an accident.
• Aircraft accident – An
aircraft accident which has
occurred on or in the vicinity
of the airport.

• Unlawful acts against Civil
Aviation – An aircraft which is
subjected to a threat of
sabotage or unlawful seizure.
a) This aircraft should be parked
at an isolated aircraft parking
position until the act of
unlawful interference is
terminated.
b) Such an area should be located
atleast 100 m away from the
aircraft parking positions,
buildings or public area.

• Emergencies at airports bordering water
areas
• Flotation devices sufficient to carry the
number of occupants of the largest aircraft
regularly using the airport should be carried
on amphibious rescue vehicles capable of
rapid development.

Emergency Operation Centre
• Emergency operations centre –
A fix Emergency Operations
Centre (EOC) should be
available to deal with
emergency situations at
Airport. The main features of
this unit are :-
a. its fixed location;
b. it acts in support of the on-
scene commander in the
mobile command post for
aircraft accidents / incidents.
c. it is the command, co-
ordination and communication
centre for unlawful seizure of
aircraft and bomb threats; and
d. It is operationally available 24
hours a day.

Emergency Operation Centre
 Location of EOC – should provide
a clear view of movement area
and isolated aircraft parking
position, wherever possible.
 It is generally used in supporting
& coordinating operations in
accidents / incidents, unlawful
seizure of aircraft, and bomb
threat incidents.
 Unit should have necessary
equipment & personnel to
communicate with the
appropriate agencies involved in
the emergency including the
mobile command post.

Command Post
• Definition
• The location at the scene of an
emergency where the on scene
commander is located and
where command,
coordination, control and
communications are
established.
• Mobile command post is a
point where cooperating
agency heads assemble to
receive and disseminate
information and make
decisions pertinent to rescue
operations.

Command Post
• Main features
• It is mobile facility capable of being rapidly
deployed.
• It serves as command, coordination and
communication centre.
• It is operational during aircraft accident /
incident and it is correctly located with
respect to wind and terrain condition.

Command Post
• Requirement
• In the event of any accident / incident a
designated recognizable and readily visible
command post is a high priority item.
• It should be established as quickly as possible,
preferably at the same time as the initiation of
fire control and rescue activities.

Command Post
• Equipment and documents
• It should contain the
necessary equipment to
communicate with all
agencies involved in the
emergency.
• The communication and
electronic devices should be
checked each month.
• In order to eliminate
confusion and missed
transmission utilisation of
head sets or sound observant
partitions for each
participants are essential.

Command Post
• Maps, charts and other relevant equipment and
information should be kept in the command post.
• It should be easily recognizable by provision of an
checkered flag or a rotating light.
• Recommendation- It may be necessary to establish a
sub command post and in this case one location
should be designated as a “master” command post
with adequate communications to the sub command
post.

Commander and Co-ordinator(s) for the
plan
• Rescue & Fire Fighting
personnel will be the first to
arrive at the accident site and
therefore for a certain periods
of time their In-charge will be in
command.
• On scene commander will arrive
later and will assume over all
command.
• The transition of authority and
command responsibility needs
to be established in emergency
plan and exercised accordingly.

Commander and Co-ordinator(s) for the
plan
• Off – airport accidents are under the direction
and control of the agency agreed upon in the
mutual aid emergency agreement pre-
arranged with the surrounding community.

Grid Map
• Definition
• A map of an area overlaid with a
grid system of rectangular
coordinates that are used to
identify ground locations where
no other land marks exist.
• Rendezvous point – A pre-
arranged reference point that is
road junction, cross road or other
specified place, to which
personnel / vehicle responding to
an emergency situation initially
proceed to receive directions to
staging areas and/or the
accident/incident site.
• Staging area – A pre-arranged
strategically placed area where
support response personnel/
vehicles and other equipment can
be held in readiness for use
during an emergency.

Grid Map
• General
• A detailed grid map of the airport and its
vicinity (with date of revision) should be
provided.
• Similar small size maps should be available in
the control tower and fire station, rescue and
fire fighting vehicles and all other supporting
vehicles responding to an emergency.

Grid Map
• It is preferable that two grid maps be provided.
• One map should depict the confines of airport access
roads, location of water supplies, rendezvous points,
staging area etc.
• The other map should include surrounding
communities and depict appropriate medical
facilities, access roads, rendezvous points etc. within
a distance of approximately 8 kms from the center of
the airport. The available medical facilities shown in
the grid map should contain information on potential
availability and medical specialities.

Grid Map
• It is absolutely essential that where more than
one grid map is used, the grids do not conflict.
• Use of different colored grid maps preclude
misinterpretation of grid maps.
• It is essential that whenever the grid map is
revised an updated copy shall be provided to
all participating agency and old map
destroyed.

Sample grid map- airport & surrounding
community

Information on Offices to be contacted
• Flow Control Charts – assist in rapid communication.
• Should contain all vital telephone numbers.
• Separate flow control charts should be developed for each type
of emergency.
• Method of notification be clearly outlined.
• Telephone numbers should be verified monthly and revised list
issued if any changes have occurred.
• Each flow control chart should be printed on one sheet and
dated for easy re-issue and amendement.

Triage and Medical Care
 Triage- The sorting of casualties
at an emergency according to the
nature and severity of their
injuries.
 Triage area- Location where
triage operations are performed.
 Triage tag- A tag used in the
classification of casualties
according to the nature and
severity of their injuries.
 Tagging- Method used to identify
casualties as requiring immediate
care (Priority I), delayed care
(Priority II) minor care (Priority
III), or as deceased.

Triage and Medical Care
• In the aftermath of an aircraft accident many lives
may be lost and many injuries aggravated if
immediate medical attention is not provided by
trained rescue personnel.
• Survivors should be triaged, given available
emergency medical aid as required, and then
promptly evacuated to appropriate medical facilities.

Triage principles (All Emergencies)
• Casualties should be
classified into four
categories :
• Priority I: Immediate care
• Priority II: Delayed care
• Priority III: Minor care
• Priority IV: Deceased

Triage principles (All Emergencies)
• The first qualified medically trained
person to arrive at the site must
immediately begin initial triage.
• This person (s) will continue
performing triage until relieved by
other qualified officer.
• Victim should be moved from the
triage area to the appropriate care
holding areas before definitive
treatment is rendered.
• Casualties should be stabilized at
the care holding areas and then
transported to an appropriate
facility.

Standardised casualty identification tags
• Casualty identification tags
should be standardised
through colour coding and
symbols to make the tag as
simple as possible.
• Tags help to expedite the
treatment of mass
casualties and permit more
rapid evacuation of the
injured to medical facilities.

 Medical priority classification of casualties
Priority I or immediate care: RED tag;
Roman
numeral I;
rabbit symbol
Priority II or delayed care: YELLOW tag;
Roman
numeral II;
turtle symbol

Priority III or minor care: GREEN tag;
Roman
numeral III;
ambulance
with X symbol
Priority IV (O) or deceased : BLACK tag

Casualty identification tag (recto)

Casualty identification tag (verso)

• Where tags are unavailable
casualties may be classified by
using roman numerals or adhesive
tape or by placing marks directly
on the forehead or on other
exposed skin area to indicate
priority. Where marking pens are
unavailable lipstick can be used.
• Every effort should be made to
ensure that priority I casualties
are treated first and receive
ambulance transportation priority
when stabilized.

Triage and medical care at aircraft
accident site
• Triage accomplished in place
– Triage is most efficiently
accomplished in place.
However, the conditions at an
accident scene may demand
the immediate movement of
casualties before triage can be
safety accomplished. In that
case, the casualties should be
moved the shortest distance,
well away from the danger

Control of the flow of injured
• The injured should pass through four areas which
should be carefully located and easily identified.
• Collection area –
(a) Location where initial collection of the seriously
injured from the debris is accomplished.
(b) Custody of casualties is transferred from the rescue &
fire fighting personnel to medical services at this
point.
(c) However, in most of the cases this transfer takes place
at the triage area.

• Triage area
a) Location where triage operations are
performed
b) Area should be located at least 90 m up wind
of the accident site to avoid possible
exposure to fire & smoke
c) If necessary, more than one triage area may
be established.

• Care area
a) Location where first aid medical care is given to
injured
b) Initially it will be a single care area however,
subsequently this should be sub-divided into three
sub areas according to three categories of injured
i.e. Immediate Care (Priority I), Delayed Care
(Priority II) and Minor Care (Priority III).
c) Care areas can be colour coded for identification
purpose i.e. Red – Immediate, Yellow – Delayed
and Green - Minor

d) Use of coloured traffic cones, flags etc. may also be
used
• Transportation area
a) Area where recording, dispatching & evacuation of
survivors is done.
b) Area should be located between the care area and
the egress road.
c) Normally one transportation area is established.
d) If there is more than one transportation area it is
essential to have communications between them.

Care of survivors
• The Airports Authority is
responsible to :-
a) Select the more suitable holding
area for the particular emergency.
b) Provide for the transportation of
un-injured from the accident site
to the designated holding area.
c) Arrange for doctor(s), nurse(s) or
team(s) qualified in first aid to
examine and treat the passengers.
d) Furnish a full passenger & crew
manifest for accountability
purposes.

Care of survivors
e) Interview the un-injured and record their names,
addresses, phone numbers and where they can be
reached for the next 72 hours.
f) Notify relatives or next of kin where deemed
necessary
g) Coordinate efforts with the designated
international relief agency (Red Cross).
h) Prevent interference by un-authorised persons or
those not officially connected with the operation in
progress.

Care of survivors
• It may be necessary to establish a special
holding area which can supply clothing,
footwear and blankets to prevent
hypothermia.

Care of Fatalities
• Preserving of evidence for determining the
cause/future corrective action.
• Co-ordination with forensic doctor.
• Ensuring that wreckage should remain undisturbed
until the arrival of the appropriate accident
investigation authority.
• Areas immediately surrounding the location of
fatalities should be completely secured and left
undisturbed until the arrival of forensic doctor and
accident investigation authority.

Care of Fatalities
• Adequate supply of disposal plastic gloves and
leather gloves should be available for
stretcher bearers.
• One plastic glove and one leather glove be
worn by the individual stretcher bearer.
(Suggestion)
• All gloves should be burned following use in
gathering body parts.

Care of Fatalities
• Before moving bodies or part of wreckage
photographs should be taken showing the
relative position of bodies and parts in the
wreckage and a sketch of their respective
positions should be made.
• Special precautions are required while dealing
with cockpit area (flying controls- photographs
,drawing ,notes)

Care of Fatalities
• Sufficient stock of body bags at airport is desirable.
• Refrigerated storage facility is desired.( Permanently located
cooler or refrigerated semitrailers)
• Postmortem examination area should be located near the
refrigerated storage with high security arrangements and
suitable working area with electricity and running water ,
large enough for initial body sorting.
• Morgue should be isolated.

Handling of Crew
• Crew must be accompanied for medical check
up.
• Their blood samples must be preserved.

Communications
• Communication services-
• Two way communications for all airport
agencies in an emergency is essential
• Back-up modes of communication should be
identified .

Communications
• Communication Network-
• A co-coordinated communication network is of vital
importance.
• Should consist of a sufficient number of radio
transceivers, telephones and other communication
devices to establish and maintain a primary and a
secondary means of communication
• Should also be linked with EOC & CP.

Communications
• Communication Equipment-
• It is important to provide serviceable
communication equipment in sufficient
quantity to ensure rapid response .
• Equipment- portable radios in sufficient
number to communicate with Command Post.
• Strict communication discipline to be
maintained.

Communications
• All frequency radio sets should be available with Command
Post.
• Headsets be preferable to reduce the confusion and noise from
multiple frequencies in use at a time.
• Sufficient number of telephone lines(both listed and unlisted)
or cellular phones should be available at the Command Post.
• Ambulances and Medical units should also be provided with
communication net work.

Communications
• It is desirable to install recording devices with
time insertion units at EOC & CP.
• It is also desirable to record all emergency
communications , including printed
communication.
• Provision of runners and potable megaphone
be made in the event of the temporary lapse of
communication.

Communications
• Testing and verification-
• Communication system should be tested each day to
verify the operability of all radio and telephone
networks.
• A complete and current list of interagency telephone
numbers should be verified monthly to ensure they
are correct.
• Updated list should be distributed to all concerned on
continual basis.

COORDINATION
• Communication means are tools for achieving
good coordination
• Communication means do not guarantee by
themselves a good coordination between the
various agencies involved. They have to be
properly used

COORDINATION
• Definition:
– « Ordering of things or
various activities in order
to achieve predefined
objectives »
• In AEP the objectives are:
– To save lifes
– Minimize the impact on
airport operations
– Minimize material lost

COORDINATION
• AEP shall be known & understood by all
participating agencies
• Agencies shall agree on roles & responsibilities
• Understand inter-relations between each of
them
• Full Scale etc. shall be conducted, a higher
level of coordination shall thus be achieved

COORDINATION
• Coordination between
the airport operator, the
police, the ambulance,
the hospitals, the airline
etc. is one of the
essential key to achieve
the objectives of saving
lifes, to maintain airport
operational capability
and to minimize
material lost

Airport Emergency Exercises
• Definition-
• A test of emergency plan and review of results
in order to review the effectiveness of the
plan
• Assembling and utilization of all the resources
that would be available and used in a real
emergency.

• Purpose-
• In order to test the Airport Emergency Plan , a
full scale mock-up exercise of aircraft accident
on airport needs to be carried out at airport to
ensure the adequacy of:
a. response of all personnel involved;
b. emergency plan and procedures; and
c. emergency equipment and
communications.

• Test should correct as many deficiencies as possible .
• Personnel and agencies from airport gets an
opportunity to know each other and their role in the
emergency plan.
• Outside agencies get opportunity to meet airport
personnel, familiarization with airport facilities,
resources, traffic pattern, identifiable
(restricted/prohibited) hazard areas.

• Testing is crucial for determining where
serious gaps exist.
• Individual misconceptions / misunderstanding.
• Procedure seems workable on paper but may
not work in practice.

• As per ICAO – Exercise be held
- Day light
- Twilight
- Darkness &
- Various conditions of weather/visibility.

• Types of Emergency Exercises & Schedule
• There are three methods :-
1) Full scale exercises – at least once every two years
2) Partial exercises – at least once each year that a full
scale exercise is not held
3) Table top exercises – at least once each six months,
except during that six months period when a full
scale exercise is held

Table top exercise
• Simplest type of drill to stage
• Only requires a meeting room, large scale grid
map of airport and senior representatives of
each participating agencies in attendance
• It is economical as can be conducted without
disruption of services and without any
expense

• It may be held as a coordination exercise prior to full
scale exercise
• Probable accident site is selected
• Each participating agency describes actions their unit
would take to respond
• Exercise quickly reveal operational problems, such as
conflicting communications frequencies, lack of
equipment, confusing terminology and areas of
jurisdiction

Partial emergency exercise
• It is also economical because scope is limited and can
be repeated as often as required in order to maintain
a high standard of proficiency.
• Restricted one unit / agency / combination of both
with the objective to train new personnel, evaluate
new equipment / techniques and to comply with
mandatory training requirements.

Full scale exercises
• The first step in planning full scale emergency
exercises is to have the support of all airport
and community authorities concern.
• The first and most basic step is to decide
exactly what should be achieved thus aim of
exercise, formulation of scenario assigning of
task is to be decided.

• Coordination meeting at least 120 days prior to the
schedule emergency exercise should be planned and
should be attended by all key supervisory personnel
of principle participating agencies.
• In the said meeting, the aims of the exercise should
be outlines, a scenario formulated, work tasks
assigned and duties of all agencies and personnel
defined.

• In preparing the scenario, the use of real name of
aircraft operators and types of aircraft should be
avoided to prevent any possible embarrassment to
civil aviation companies or agencies.
• To obtain maximum benefit from a full scale
emergency exercise, it is important to review the
entire proceedings.
• A observer critique team should be organised,
comprised of members who are familiar with mass
casualty accident proceedings.

 A team Chairman should be appointed and should be
present at all meetings.
 Each member of the critique team should observe
the entire exercise and complete the appropriate
emergency drill critique forms.
 As soon as convenient after the exercise (not later
than 7 days), critique meeting should be held so
members of the team can present their observations
& recommendations for improvement of the Airport
Emergency Plan & Procedures.

Exercises
Exercise Planning Exercise Implementation
Exercise Evaluation
(Feed back)

Review of the Airport Emergency Plan
Review following an accident
• Obtain oral or written reports from all participating
personnel and complete a document covering the
entire response operation.
• A table talk meeting then be held to consider these
documents and, if required, make changes to the
emergency plan considered necessary to increase
the response capability for future emergencies.

Airport emergency exercise – AAI Policy
• As per AAI policy (operational circular no.2 of 1995)
full scale emergency exercise involving and aircraft
shall be undertaken once a year.
• Airport Director should convene a pre-exercise
meeting with all involved agencies to brief them of
the proposed exercise scenario and appointment of
designated observers to note deficiencies of the
short comings of the plan during the exercise.

Airport emergency exercise – AAI Policy
• At the conclusion of the exercise immediately
a de-briefing session should be called by the
Airport Director along with the personnel of
various agencies / organizations participating
in the exercise.
• Update / amend the Airport Emergency Plan
where found necessary.
