Alex are your suggestions based on your knowledge of areas, or do you other than the RCR directory have a prompt?

Dont get me wrong SOP'S have there place .....

Sometimes Callers are jsut plain Wrong. But still If the domestic fire is street A or street B whats the diffrence excepte maybe a BWC.
We hope for a 2 stacion and hence 2 appliance response but sometimes Alerts will change this and more often than no XXX42 will result in all the kings men.

Mapping, the RCRD and SOPs mate.
There's no pre-determined response schedules [closest to furthest brigades] setup in BOMS for zones other than MFS and a couple of urban frings CFS groups.
Mic10110:
I agree Alex - 2 Brigades minimum for a reported structure fire within the town. Oustide of the town include a couple of BWC's. There's still plenty of fixed alarms out there with a single brigade response too. We're guilty I know....
fire8029:
in our area we would have an mfs appliance and 2 cfs appliances and for a second alarm another mfs appliance from 10kms and one 2 from 15kms, them there is multiple cfs within 30km radius for a third or fourth and so on.
