Hi Lars,
Thank you for your comment.My name is Tibor and I am a frist respone unit firefighter from Nitra fire station, in Slovakia.
Greetings from Slovakia. Tibor http://www.firemantibor.estranky.sk
Thx for your comment - i'm not sure, if a had a powerpoint about ventilation. On weekend i will scan some pages of our training manuals for you.
Fireservice in Austria is in fact similar to Germany but it's not the same.
At the end of 2008 we have 337.170 firefighters in 4.861 firedepartments (even in the smallest villages). The firefighters are responsible for firefighting and helping in other emergency cases.
Not included in our firefighting system are the Emergency medical services - the are provided by other organizations (like the red cross or rescue departments of the bigger cities).
All fire emergencies can be reported under the free number "122" - the average response time from giving an emergency call to the arrival of the first fire unit is about 9 minutes all over the whole territory of Austria.

Austria itself is a federal state with nine states ("Bundesländer"). These states are divided into districts ("Bezirke") and a few statuatory cities. Each state have the legislative authority for some matters of culture, social car and also firepreventing/firefighting. So each of these nine states have it's one firefighting-system - the are very similar but in some ways (e.g. administration, uniforms, ..) not the same.
Austria has, except of the largest 6 capitals (Vienna, Innsbruck, Linz, Salzburg, Klagenfurt and Graz) a volunteer firefigther-system. In these six cities there are career fire services, assisted by volunteers.
These volunteers are not paid and structured in fire departments - each city/community has at least one fire department. Firedepartments of sourrounding villages are joined to a firesection ("Feuerwehrabschnitt") and these sections are forming the firedistricts (the same as the politically districts). The highest level of the command chain is the state, to wich all fire districts of itself belonging to - it is called the "Landesfeuerwehrverband" (state firefighting association).
On the level of the federal state there is only a administrativ organisation, wich gives recommendations to the associations, but don't have any command authority. Lager companys can operate fireservices for there own needs, but these services are subordinated to the local fire department of the village.
In shortform:
fire department (with one or more fire stations)
->
fire section
->
fire district
->
state firefighting association
This was a short summary of our firefighting-organisation here in Austria.
Hope, it was interesting for you.
Nice day and best regards,
Bernd

Ventilation is not used that much in Denmark (and 98% of all ventilation is defensively or as a way to clear smoke AFTER the fire is put out)..
