Why Choose the ProSafe Mobile Aircraft Fire Trainer?
Unmatched Training Mobility
Eliminate travel costs and labor downtime. The MAFT allows you to bring the fireground to the airport, enabling crews to train on-site and remain in service while mastering critical ARFF (Aircraft Rescue and Firefighting) skills.
Full Regulatory Compliance (Index A-E)
The MAFT is engineered to meet the stringent requirements of FAA Circular 150/5220-17A and NFPA 1003. It is the ideal solution for maintaining certification across all airport categories, from small regional strips to major international hubs.
Completely Self-Contained Design
Equipped with an onboard generator and DOT-approved propane tanks, the MAFT is a “plug-and-play” solution. Accompanied by a dedicated tractor or trailer-mounted control room, it requires no external infrastructure to deliver high-intensity training.
Key Features & Capabilities
Pro-Safe Fire Training System Inc. builds live fire training systems shaped by real-world fireground experience. Every simulator and prop is designed to deliver realistic training conditions with the control, consistency, and safety standards instructors and crews rely on.
Versatile Fuselage Sizes
Available in 27’, 35’, or 45’ trailer-mounted configurations to suit your department’s specific space and training requirements.
Advanced Safety Integration
Features an integrated propane detection system, temperature sensors, and strategically placed emergency stop stations for total instructor control.
Comprehensive Fire Scenarios
Master a wide array of hazards, including wheel blowouts, brake fires, APU emergencies, and flight deck blazes.
Realistic Environmental Effects
Includes an onboard smoke machine to simulate zero-visibility cabin conditions and realistic thermal signatures for every evolution.
Dual Exterior/Interior Capability
Simulate complex emergencies ranging from interior galley and cargo fires to exterior wing, engine, and fuselage spill fires.
Why Propane?
Propane provides the most realistic simulation of fire. It offers lower costs through reduced maintenance and less fuel burned. Propane is also more environmentally friendly than alternative fuel sources.
benefits of propane live fire training
- Realistic fire simulation with controllable, repeatable flame behaviour
- Lower maintenance requirements with cleaner operation and reduced residue
- Reduced fuel use through efficient burns and scenario control
- Cleaner operation compared to many traditional fuel alternatives
Fuel flexibility and integration
Pro-Safe systems can also be configured to integrate with natural gas and Tek Flame, offering additional flexibility to match site requirements, training objectives, and available fuel sources.
Compliance and Safety Record
Pro-Safe Fire Training Systems Inc. designs live fire training systems to align with a wide range of stringent international compliance requirements. This commitment has positioned Pro-Safe to support training programs and facilities that serve military, airport ARFF, and civilian fire departments, where regulatory expectations and safety standards are exceptionally high.
Safety is central to every simulator, prop, and training evolution. Developed by firefighters for firefighters, Pro-Safe systems are built for controlled operation, repeatable scenarios, and responsible training environments. To date, no training-related injuries have been reported as a result of training with Pro-Safe systems.
