Oman Air recently held an ultra-realistic full-scale emergency exercise in Muscat, involving all the airline’s emergency facilities and teams. The exercise was coordinated from Oman Air’s emergency response centre, testing every area of the airline’s operations and required participants to function in capacities that would be expected of them in a real aircraft accident.
It also aimed to promote preparedness by rehearsing and testing Oman Air’s Emergency Response Plan, conduct operational tests of facilities, equipment, IT hardware and software, and evaluate the internal and external mechanisms for delivering support to victims and their family members.
The airline has invested significantly in emergency preparedness and this exercise was the latest in a series. The national carrier of the Sultanate of Oman prepares to expand its current fleet of 30 aircraft with delivery later this year of the first of 20 new planes.
