The methodology for rescue and firefighting at an aerodrome is based on the critical area concept developed by the Rescue and Fire Fighting Panel and adopted by ICAO via Amendment No. 30 to Annex 14 in 1976. The concept is based on the critical area to be protected in any post-accident fire situation with the objective of creating and maintaining survivable conditions, providing egress routes for aircraft occupants and to initiate the rescue of those occupants unable to make their escape without direct aid.
The airport category for RFF should be based on the over-all length of the longest aeroplanes normally using the airport and their maximum fuselage width.
