Aerial Fire Fighting 2014
Conference & Exhibition
As wildfires grab the global headlines,
learn about the latest developments in aerial
fire fighting from around the world.
Conference themes
The latest in a successful series, AFF 2014 is again set to draw

light of the current global economic climate, as agriculture,
forestry & fire fighting departments come under increasing
budgetary pressure for performance and spending, particularly
in relation to large wildfire incidents.
