The focus is on a wholistic approach to the standard positioning, uses, and deployment of aerial devices at most standard structural type fires encountered by fire departments. Novice and experienced firefighters and officers are introduced to an easy-to-use system for aerial fireground operations that can be applied to all structural responses. Manufacturers' recommendations and industry best practices are covered. This system helps to build the muscle memory and to elevate the operational tempo of the fireground, which is crucial for gaining the initiative at fires.
