This report is part of a larger series of reports that studies government regulations and policies pertaining to airport crash, fire, and rescue services (CFR). The purpose of this report is to identify areas in which research and development programs might lead to improved CFR and to determine whether there are R&D programs in these areas. The conclusion is that there are active R&D programs in all of the promising areas. The only recommendation is that more attention be paid to various operations research questions. The areas covered include aircraft technology (structures, propulsion and fuel systems, cabin furnishings, and emergency protection and egress), CFR equipment and facilities (chemicals, CFR vehicles, ground communications systems, and airport facilities), and training and operations research questions. The potential relevance of possible R&D in each area to CFR is discussed.
