Findlay area fire departments and some Findlay police officers received training on Life Flight landing zone operations. Life Flight’s Nick Vance said that they trained Findlay firefighters in bringing a helicopter down safely.
Vance added that the training helps bring the firefighters and pilots together. Vance said that it will help make things more efficient.
The training went over calling in a helicopter for landing as well as safety precautions. With the ongoing construction on I-75 the departments and Life Flight though it would be good to go over the material.
Findlay Fire Captain Matt Cooper said that this will help firefighters keep people safe.
Below is a video outlining some of the training and its purpose.
