The globalization process in almost all spheres of our life causes a
possibility of making equal living standards in all countries of the world. An
introduction to globalization was undoubtedly the development of air transport
which greatly accelerated the possibility of travelling on all continents. Along
with the development of technology, airplanes used for carrying people and

they must be equipped with modern navigational facilities, modern equipment for
surface handling of airplanes and passengers. This, in turn, requires a

world economy countries face a problem how to assure the high quality of
aviation services, its access for a man-in-the-street, and first of all safety in its
broad meaning, which is a synonym of quality in air transport. Nowadays, this
is the main problem in air transport which has priority before the comfort of a
traveller. Safety in aviation is approached in two dimensions – prevention of
occurrence events and removal of results of unforeseeable incidents, accidents or
catastrophes. A special part in this area is performed by the airport rescue and

requirement for airport rescuers set by the International Civil Aviation
Organization (ICAO) is conducting rescue and firefighting operations in case of
an aircraft or airport incident (disaster) [...].
