On Saturday, January 7th, 2006, members of local volunteer fire departments were on hand to recieve training from LifeFlight, a local pre-hospital air medical transport service, on the proper techniques as to setting up Landing Zones for these specialized aircraft. The class lasted approximately 3 hours and was held at the Cecil Township VFC #3. Firefighters from Cecil VFC #3, Cecil #2-Muse VFD, Cecil #1-Lawrence VFD, South Fayette Twp. VFD, Fairview VFD, and Fort Cherry Ambulance Service were present for the training. Below are photos of LifeFlight 5, an MD Explorer type helicopter. These photos were taken by our company secretary Joe Slebonick.
