[Asia Economy Yeongnam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Hwang Du-yeol] Air Busan will conduct an "Aircraft Accident Response Simulation Training" assuming an actual aircraft accident situation.

On the 22nd, Air Busan announced that it will conduct training to establish emergency measures identical to real situations and perform appropriate accident response actions, assuming an aircraft accident scenario.

The training is based on a scenario where an Air Busan aircraft has an accident at Gimhae Airport, and will proceed according to the same accident response system and duties as in an actual accident, including mobilizing the initial response team, forming an accident countermeasure committee, and sending emergency assembly messages to executives and employees.

After the training, there will be a feedback session on the entire process to further enhance the crisis response system level.

In addition to the simulation training conducted independently on the day, Air Busan plans to participate in the "Comprehensive Aircraft Accident Recovery Training" held at Gimhae Airport to further strengthen the accident response capabilities of its executives and employees.

The training, held at 3 p.m. on the 22nd at the Gimhae Airport apron, will involve 32 related organizations and companies including Air Busan, the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport, the Air Force 5th Air Mobility Wing, Gimhae Airport Police Unit, Gangseo Fire Station, and Korea Airports Corporation.

The training will be conducted on an actual Air Busan aircraft to ensure organic cooperation in the event of an aircraft accident.

Sixteen Air Busan employees, including cabin crew and maintenance staff, will participate in the training and perform tasks such as ▲ responding to abnormal aircraft body situations ▲ guiding non-injured persons to safe zones ▲ investigating the accident site.

An Air Busan official stated, "We will continuously review manuals and improve the response system level to ensure that 'safety,' Air Busan's greatest strength and important value, is maintained more strictly."
