You will lower the temperature to increase the survivability of anyone inside. That\u2019s why this training is critical, so that teams advance as quickly and safely as possible to prevent loss of life.\u201d<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_6289\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-6289\" style=\"width: 416px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-6289\" src=\"https:\/\/tridentnewspaper.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/Helicopter-simulator-3.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"416\" height=\"234\" srcset=\"https:\/\/tridentnewspaper.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/Helicopter-simulator-3.jpg 5115w, https:\/\/tridentnewspaper.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/Helicopter-simulator-3-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/tridentnewspaper.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/Helicopter-simulator-3-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/tridentnewspaper.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/Helicopter-simulator-3-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/tridentnewspaper.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/Helicopter-simulator-3-650x366.jpg 650w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 416px) 100vw, 416px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-6289\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">The training environment includes a metal wall meant to simulate a warship&#8217;s hangar leading out to the flight deck.<br \/>CPL DAVID VELDMAN, FORMATION IMAGING SERVICES<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Along with different entry and exit points than the previous trainer, explains Lt(N) Daniel Chamberlain, acting Damage Control Training Officer, the new helicopter simulator is engineered to be more resistant to the effects of training and nature.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSystems within the helicopter will extend its service life, like improved steel and a water system which ensures it doesn\u2019t get as hot as the previous frame, preventing thermal expansion,\u201d says Lt(N) Chamberlain.<\/p>\n<p>The new helicopter trainer was built and installed in February 2020, with the propane, water, air and control systems put in over the following weeks. The plan was to have the new trainer operational by April 2020, \u201cbut COVID significantly delayed its completion,\u201d says LCdr Cumming.<\/p>\n<p>Prior to the shutdown period, managers at DCTF increased the training schedule, but since November 2019 only the west coast DC Division has run helicopter crash and rescue courses. On March 1, Damage Control Training Facility Galiano, in Victoria, BC went offline until their new helicopter trainer is installed, which is scheduled for sometime within the next fiscal year.<\/p>\n<p>To simulate a helicopter emergency on board ship, control\u00a0operators and instruction staff use propane burners to ignite a fire in any of six locations throughout the helicopter frame. Individual members of the Marine Technician and Boatswain trades, who act as both the ship\u2019s helicopter crash rescue team and the advanced firefighting rapid attack unit, are the first responders if there is a fire on ship.<\/p>\n<p>Training consists of class time, dry runs and practice before the simulated fire, as well as rescue exercises using the helicopter trainer. Up in the control tower, instruction staff work to create as realistic an environment as possible, calling out emergency information over a loudspeaker and watching computer screens to monitor the various fire locations as the flames begin to curl up and around the helicopter frame.<\/p>\n<p>Advances in technology means new materials and compounds to assist the attack team as they respond to the emergency, LCdr Cumming explains, while improved monitoring systems and other technological innovations improve the overall communication and safety of the simulation.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe control system for the helicopter is more robust to give operators better safety for students, but the experience is still largely hands on.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>There are 41 core instructor and management positions at DCTF Kootenay. Most have spent time in high-readiness or deployed ships and are members of working groups \u2014 both national and international \u2014 in their specific fields of expertise, to share ideas and lessons learned, says LCdr Cumming.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThere is never a \u2018regular day at the office\u2019 here, although during the maintenance periods&#8230;there is a chance to catch up and conduct what civilian teachers call planning time.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>In a regular \u2014 \u2018non-pandemic\u2019 \u2014 year, DCTF staff train about 6,500 sailors, putting them through drills of various hazards and emergencies that can happen at sea, with courses designed to correspond to the different classes of ships.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cEach one comes with its unique challenges,\u201d says LCdr Cumming. \u201cStaff are trained as experts, but most courses also have a few leaders in the student body who provide a lot of training value as well.
