Event Overview:

Aerial Firefighting Vancouver - the fifth event in this extremely powerful series

Many wildfires, and the human vulnerability and environmental damage they effect, are the result of demographic growth, land-use changes and climate variability.

The Aerial Firefighting conferences, which are held around the globe, have a powerful line-up of presentations from international experts in this field and bring together this focused community to discuss key topics, products, services and issues effecting both their local regions and the more global outlook.

Widely represented by international aerial operators, fixed and rotary-winged aircraft manufacturers, aerial firefighting system manufacturers, unmanned vehicle manufacturers and government officers from forestry, civil protection and environment departments, the international Vancouver conference and exhibition will focus on wildfire: the one natural disaster that can be stopped in its tracks with swift ground firefighting response and robust aerial firefighting technologies.
