went to a nursing home once and the small fire was out and all the patients were sitting in the next room having dinner, don't worry about the smoke.

I think you will find only a few are happy in the Urban fringe areas, some brigades are not happy, but in the end it is better than something old I guess.

What is the story about drivers under 25??
We have a couple under 25 that drive P1, they are safe and good drivers.
I hope this is not true about the under 25.
Can anyone point to the document that has this info

I think Medevac hit in on the head
yes you can it with 4, but more the better

I don't think that it has got anything to do with teaching the number 2.
We must have gone up and down the hill  5 times not once.

Medevac I guess if an appliance is working at a job, you just call in the next resource.
If they were at a rescue and you had another rescue, you would call in your backup.

medevac I think that BWD use the 24 for grass fires and alarms and BWD rescue is a backup or used for these calls when bwd 24 is out of area.

The reason for seven, yes some people Will disagree and say wait for the other appliances
A few examples
House fire
4 in BA, 1 IOC, 1 Pump operator, 1 person getting water in = 7
Grass Fire 1 Line
1 IOC, 1 Pump operator, 5 on one Line ( 90m is a lot of hose to get working with in some areas)
If you went to a job like Mt Osmond 1 line with a crew of seven was still hard work on a day like that, the more the better, it must be safer less work than six
Grass Fire 2 Lines
1 IOC, 1 Pump operator, 3 on one line and 2 on the other.

From the web site
Isuzu Dual-cab Rescue Appliance. It is fitted with a Darley mid-mount pump, hosereel, breathing apparatus and 1400 litres of water allowing it to perform normal firefighting duties but it also carries a Positive Pressure Fan for ventilation at structure fires and Hydraulic Heavy Rescue Equipment for extrication at motor vehicle accidents.

So what happens if you take your rescue appliance (no pump) to a job and you only have 4 or 5 ff go to the call with 1 driver and you get to the job any you need fire protection or worse the car is on fire  :?
I think it is better to have a multipurpose fire appliance.

I would like to see Rescue appliances that can also be used for firefighting not just rescue ( have a pump with 2000 litres).
The main reason in some areas in is hard to get 1 appliance in the day to calls, so if you only have 4 ff you can just take one appliance ( and have firefighting if needed until back up arrives)

Big Yellow Gongbeater you live in the past!
Your gong might have beaten well in the past, but now it not as loud.
But on aggregate you are the winner.
Fire frog is that silly ?

Unfortunately people want to blame someone, sometimes in life filtered happens.
People have the attitude its not my fault the fire happened and that I was not ready.
I feel for Euan and the CFS on the West Coast. I also understand the anger from some of the public.
Lets hope the we all learn from this terrible day.
