From the Paper:

"An airplane bursting into flames upon landing is a rare event, but airports need to be prepared to respond swiftly. Passenger survival rates are high when aircraft fires are attacked immediately. Providing appropriate and realistic training situations is essential to providing firefighters with hands-on experiences that will enable them to move quickly and confidently, saving time that will save lives."
