Visiting the Airport Fire & Rescue Station
15 Jul 2025
Boulcott Probus Club recently visited the Wellington Airport Fire & Rescue station.
The hospitality of the airport staff and the interesting nature of their facilities and work was exceptional. The group had the opportunity to have a photo in front of one of the $1.5M fire/foam trucks. It carries 9 tons of water but will only last two minutes in a rescue requiring foam.
The Club was invited to return next year to inspect their new state-of-the-art fire station, with works commencing soon on the other side of the airport.
After their visit, the group then enjoyed lunch at the lovely Loose Goose cafe. They spent a couple of hours chatting after their meal and agreed that a return would be great.
