Just an aside, A320s / B737s etc service airports daily in Australia with not only no RFF but no ATC of any kind - they have done the safety analysis and believe statistically there is no case to answer.
I didn't know that someone actually had the brain power to do that.
When was the last time a life was saved by any AFS in any country?
Are they equipped to enter a burning A320 & could they do anything to improve evacuation?
No doubt to suggest such a barbaric idea as to remove the AFS would be political sewerside, & would never be considered in a civilised society like ours.
