Key Takeaways:

  • An ARFF (Aircraft Rescue and Fire Fighting) truck requested permission to cross the main runway to reach the fuel center.
  • The control tower denied the request, indicating the runway was not for such transit.
  • The ARFF truck was instructed to use the designated perimeter road, as it is intended for that purpose.
