“The award recognises on an international scale the improvements in our aviation fire protection service that are being delivered as a result of this project,” said ARFF general manager Andrew Rushbrook.
“We are committed to being on the cutting edge of advances in aviation safety. This technology ensures in the unlikely event of an incident anywhere on the airport that Airservices is well-placed to respond within minutes,” he added.
