ABZ as in the airport? Will it not be fire fighting training? You sometimes see the mock-up a/c at Glasgow ablaze - I don't know if ABZ has the same type, but they will have something similar for the guys to practice on.

EDIT: Rather predictably, ABZ seems to have an a/c and helo mock-up for training:

Sorry, I meant Aberdeen city not the airport. There was a rather large pall of black smoke from what looked like Kings gate / Rosemount direction...

And we wonder why Aberdeen council are skint!! Marshalls college must be costing 8 figures at least, if not 9 figures, to renovate.
