Case Study
Vancouver International Airport
Crash on Airport 2023
Tabletop Exercise
During the summer of 2023, Ally collaborated with the emergency planning team at YVR to conduct a Table-top Exercise (TTX) focusing on a “crash on airport” scenario. The primary objective was to facilitate training and foster information exchange among internal and external agencies. Participants were able to simulate and discuss the plans and protocols required to respond efficiently to a significant aircraft incident. This included coordinating a staging area to support the crash site and managing passenger evacuation procedures.
Participating agencies included:
- BC Coroners Service
- Canadian Border Services Agency
- City of Richmond
- Richmond Fire Rescue
- NAV Canada
- Airport Operations Dispatchers
- Royal Canadian Mounted Police
- Public Health Agency Canada
- United States Customs and Border Protection.
