Indianapolis International Airport Fire Department Mid-Field Station
Indianapolis International Airport Fire Department currently houses all its apparatus under one roof. However, a second station
will break ground in 2006 in the northwest corner of the airfields. This will allow the Airport Fire Department to respond from
two stations on opposite corners of the new Mid-Field Terminal (scheduled for completion in 2008).

Some of the pictures above were taken by Indianapolis International Airport Fire Department Division Chief Kevin Elmore. Special thanks to him as well for the some great history and background of the
Indianapolis International Airport Fire Department .
