Fire Fighting Course Update - Halon Phase-Out & Replacement Agents

We’ve updated our Fire Fighting Course to include the latest developments on Halon and its replacement agents in line with Regulation (EU) 2024/590.

 

What’s new?

 

Halon has long been the go-to fire extinguishing agent in aviation — highly effective, but environmentally harmful. As ozone-depleting substances (ODS) and potent greenhouse gases, Halons are now being phased out:

 

  • Portable fire extinguishers – by end of 2025
  • Other applications (e.g. cargo compartments) – by 2040

Our updated course covers:

 

  • The environmental impact of Halons and their replacements
  • Key selection factors – performance, safety, cost, and availability
  • Approved Halon replacement agents such as Novec 1230
  • Compliance with EASA and EU regulations
  • Guidance on consulting EASA-approved service providers
