Using Fire Engineering Simulations

Discuss issues related to using the free training simulations available on FireEngineering.com.

    How much does the cd vesrion of this simulator Cost? Can you purchase them for your lap top individually or as a package deal?
  • Jonathan Kaye

    The simulations are not available for purchase, only for use on Fire Engineering for free. Maybe Fire Engineering would make a package set, I don't know -- write a message to Chief Bobby Halton to see if something like that is in the works.

    The latest simulation, a highway bus accident with triaging, is now live in the Fire Engineering simulations area. We hope you find it useful!
  • Jonathan Kaye

    Anyone who has been using the bus simulation have some comments? I can see a good amount of usage but I would love to hear what you like or don't like about it (and what you'd like in the future).

    Did the pump operator simulation and thought it was very good except for the 360 tour. Had trouble with the compartment check, it would have been less confusing if it said compartments/equipment. I kept looking for a hidden compartment of some kind instead of the raised deck gun.

    Also additional pumping simulations, multiple limes, relay pumping, drafting, rural water supply with drafting from multiple portable ponds, etc.

    Thanks for the feedback, I'll have to see about changing the wording to make it clearer.  I would love to do more scenarios, I'm just getting slammed with other work, but I appreciate you making the comment so it stays on our to do list!

    what about adding draft operations to the pump sim

  • Jonathan Kaye

    thanks for the suggestion, if we continue development on this, we will certainly consider adding drafting.
