TOWER

120 min.

The aim of this lesson is to enable the participants to evacuate an injured person in a safe and secure manner from the hub or nacelle, inside and outside the tower, to a primary assembly area (ground or transition piece) and from transition piece to a secondary assembly area (vessel).
