ABSTRACT:
A fire fighting trainer for use in training fire fighters to extinguish jet crash fuel fires and the like, the trainer includes a supply pipe and control valve, a distribution pipe with holes, an open water tank with water within which the distribution pipe is disposed, so that liquid propane jets out from the holes, then passes as vapor bubbles to the water surface, then collects as propane vapor on the water surface, and a gas pilot flame device for lighting the propane vapor to form flames on the water surface. The simulated flames look very similar to jet crash liquid fuel flames.
