As part of our training programs we stressed the importance of field exercises. The following group of photographs are from an exercise done for Bay, LTD. As part of our training we teach our students how to lower a stretcher over a hand rail, feet first. We've found that by using a vertical lowering technique, when no high anchor point is available, the load can be put on the system without any drop.

The students are lowering a victim vertically over the hand rail on the air compressor unit at the new Air Liquide plant in Texas.
