The presented paper deals with the characterization of the logistics system created to introduce a comprehensive approach to safety management, namely the safety management system and its individual elements, which in cooperation lead to maintaining the desired level of air safety. Air transport is a very specific transport sector with high safety requirements. To maintain the necessary level of safety, it is essential to follow established and best practices. At the same time, it is also necessary to respond and to adapt to constant development of air transport. Logistic support is part of the activities of all IRS units, without which the consequences of an emergency event in the required time and quality could not be remedied. The topic discussed is related to the efficient set-up of logistics for the need for interoperability of the integrated rescue system when dealing with air traffic emergencies. The elimination of the consequences of an emergency by the rescue services results from the management of the rescue units. In the absence of logistical assurance, shortcomings in the event of the required speed and quality could not be removed. Therefore, it is necessary that all IRS components have the necessary comfort for the quality performance of their activities, which are usually performed in very demanding conditions of intervention. The logistic support of the basic and other components of the IRS should not be underestimated in emergencies and the entire area of logistical support should always be the centre of attention of all competent authorities.
