INDUSTRY NEWS RELEVANT TO YOUR BUSINESS
Antipodean Aviation, comments, “For many years our instructors have trav elled the world teaching HUET courses for workplace trainers and personnel involved in aviation and oil and gas industry operations. We are often asked for recommendations on what equipment our clients should purchase for their own operations. Our response is to purchase the best and most reli able equipment availablesince your life could depend on it. In our view, AERIAL’s Aviation Life Support
Equipment leads the world, and that is why we use it ourselves.” Senior Instructor for Aircrew and
Safety Training Programs for Antipodean Aviation, Nathan Pollard, states, “As instructors we see the vari ety of training programs offered world wide. But partnering with EmbryRiddle Aeronautical University puts this pro gram in a new league. This is the most comprehensive HUET program avail able and the only one that offers uni versity certification.”
of Aqua Lung’s Survival Egress Air emergency breathing systems, AERIAL welcomes the opportunity to supply demo equipment to Antipodean’s train ers who are now able to offer university certification and Continuing Education Units (CEUs) through EmbryRiddle. SEA systems are compact, selfcon tained compressed air cylinders with integrated breathing regulatorsmuch like miniature SCUBA. The flightvestmounted system allows pilots and crews to breathe underwa terand make their escapein the crit ical moments following an emergency water landing. According to AERIAL president, John
Marcaccio, “HUET training is essential for aircrews operating over water. Without it, chances for surviving a water landing are slim at best. Aqua Lung’s Survival Egress Air (SEA) sys tems are the best emergency breathing systems available, but they will only save lives if crew members are properly trained and experienced in their use. This program gives aviators the handson training they’ll need to sur vive a water crash. The use of sub mersible simulators elevates this pro gram way beyond book learning. Participants actually have to escape from a submerged cockpit.” Max Reidy, General Manager for
