PLATTSBURGH — Plattsburgh International Airport will be conducting a full-scale emergency simulation from 8 a.m. to noon Saturday, May 31.
The exercise is designed to enhance emergency preparedness and ensure coordinated response efforts in the event of an aircraft emergency.
During the exercise, local fire, EMS and law enforcement agencies will be actively participating, with their presence visible in and around the airport and Arizona Avenue. The simulation will involve realistic emergency scenarios to test response protocols, interagency coordination and airport emergency operations.
