Charlotte Douglas International Airport[]

The Charlotte Fire Department provides aircraft rescue and firefighting services to Charlotte Douglas International Airport (CLT). Charlotte Douglas International Airport is ranked among the top 10 busiest airports in the world, averaging 1,600 daily aircraft operations. The airport is also the home of the NC Air National Guard 145th Airlift Wing. As a joint civil-military facility, ARFF services are augmented by personnel and apparatus from the 145th Civil Engineer Squadron Fire Team. The ARFF equipment is housed in Station 17 (eastside of the airport) and Station 41 (westside of the Airport). Station 41 is within the airfield perimeter and responds only to incidents on the airfield. Station 17 is built into the perimeter, which allows ARFF equipment to respond to the airfield and Engine 17 to respond outside the perimeter when necessary.

History[]

The history of the Charlotte Fire Department dates back to 1830, when the first fire engine was purchased. A paid department was officially formed on May 20, 1875, through the consolidation of four fire companies:Hornet, Pioneer, Yellow Jacket, and Independent.
