Full-scale hands-on facility training (3-6 hours) covering aerial driver-operator evolutions per NFPA 1002 Ch. 6. Officer selects evolutions for the day. Possible evolutions include: apparatus positioning at simulated structure (corner positioning, scrub area, avoiding overhead obstacles), full stabilization (outrigger deployment with ground pads, slope evaluation, short-jack scenarios), aerial deployment to roof (climb angle, transitioning firefighter from aerial to roof and back), aerial deployment to upper floor window for victim rescue, basket / platform operations (load capacity verification, multiple-victim rescue), water delivery from tip / platform (waterway connection, supply line management, GPM at various angles and extensions), aerial as elevated master stream against a defensive scenario, ladder and platform operations on grade, emergency operation (manual override of hydraulic system), and bedding the stick / cab cradle. Each evolution includes pre-brief, walk-through, full evolution, AAR, and reset. Reference: NFPA 1002 Ch. 6, NFPA 1911, IFSTA Aerial D/O. Document evolutions, scrub area achieved, and inspection findings.

1. 1. Position and stabilize the aerial within target time per evolution.
2. 2. Deploy aerial to assigned target (roof, window, victim) safely.
3. 3. Demonstrate water delivery within load chart envelope.
4. 4. Demonstrate emergency / manual operation of the aerial.
5. 5. Conduct AAR and document for credentialing.
