I should also add that there are some more images from the ARFF training session available at http://www.flickr.com/search/?w=35849226@N04&q=Moffett%20Training

Thanks Ron! Yes, over the three days of this training course they went through many different evolutions of Aircraft Firefighting, including using the Snozzle (this video), using hand lines, and just an exterior attack round robin on a large fuel fire, where they essentially ran out the rest of the fuel supply while having the rigs cycle in and out doing fire suppressions and shuttling back for a water refill.

Great video, Bruce!  I recently did photos at a fire school, and they also had live fire training in an aircraft mockup.  However, they had the firefighters enter the fuselage with hoses.
