Emergency exercise at Liverpool John Lennon Airport

An emergency exercise is being staged at Liverpool John Lennon Airport
on Sunday 19th November from 10.00hrs until 14.00hrs.

The exercise has been planned as a means of testing and exercising
Liverpool John Lennon Airport’s emergency plan along with those of other
agencies following a full scale emergency incident at the Airport.

Around 100 volunteers will be taking part and a significant number of
emergency services personnel will also be participating in this
exercise. However the Airport will operate ‘business as usual’ on Sunday
and no passengers or airlines will be affected by the training taking
place.

It is not unusual for the Airport to carry out such an exercise as it is
a requirement by the Civil Aviation Authority for Airport’s such as
Liverpool to hold a full emergency exercise every two years.
