11 Critical Issues Facing Municipal Fire Depts Dubai Response Time Reach Utilization of Aerial Assets November 2013, firefighters in Sharjah, north of Dubai, struggled to battle a blaze in a 25-storey tower without equipment to reach the flames. (from a BBC newscast). The fire chief told the reporter, I wish I had equipment to fight this fire

12 Role of Helicopters in Urban Firefighting Fire Suppression Apply water and foam to areas ground based firefighters can not reach Search & Rescue Evacuate victims from location inaccessible by ground. Resource Deployment Move and deploy equipment and personal free of traffic congestion. Command and Control Provide critical real time information through aerial surveillance to Incident Command. Medical Evacuation Ability to move victims from the scene.

13 Value An Aerial Fire Truck Rapid Response Keep the Fire Small Give Occupants Time to Exit Give Ground Firefighters Time to Get to the Fire, Set Up, and Fight the Fire Internally

14 How Fire Destroys a Building 1 The fire starts 2 The fire grows and breaks the windows 3 The fire destroys the building by lapping up the outside of the building

15 Coordinated Aerial & Ground Fire Attack The helicopter keeps the fire small while ground forces to reach the fire and occupants evacuate 1 Fire starts helicopter deployed rapidly free of traffic congestion 2 Fire breaks the windows but is held inside building by SkyCannon providing victims time to exit the building while retarding the fires growth 3 Ground forces have time to fight the fire internally aided by the SkyCannon

18 Importance of Side Mounted Moveable Boom Allows pilot to position aircraft with a planned escape route Allows pilot to position aircraft for improved handling stability avoiding tail wind impact on the aircraft Boom operated by fire fighter from aircraft cabin reducing pilot work load Boom stows and locks forward for rapid flight to fire Movable boom facilitates firefighting between buildings with limited access Boom articulates side to side 0 to 100 and from horizontal down 25 18

19 Use of SkyCannon Between Buildings 19

20 SkyCannon System Performance Less than 20 minute installation and removal for rapid deployment 40 meters horizontal spray measured from tip of rotor blades allowing the pilot to fly at a safe distance from the building and out of the smoke plume Spray volume at 600 liters per minute Hover refill systems for rapid water replenishment close to the fire in less than 60 seconds Ground refillable using standard fire hoses from a fire hydrant or water truck

21 SkyCannon System Performance Articulating boom permits aircraft positioning independent of boom location avoiding tail wind and allows pilot to plan escape route in case of emergency Integrated infrared camera that tracks with the boom movement Integrated fire foam system increasing firefighting effectiveness and efficiency 7x from water only Joystick controlled boom with all operating controls and infrared display necessary for operation of the system Automatic boom return and storage in Emergency for Safety
