Fire in Owings Mills
Flashover Training
Last night firefighters from RVFC went down to the BCo Fire Rescue Academy to do flashover training. A flashover happens in a fire when all of the combustible items in a room simultaneously ignite into flames. It is a very dangerous situation for firefighters. The FRA has a flashover simulator so we can learn how to recognize and what to do stop a flashover from happening.
