Will speak more tonight. Capt CFS Port Elliot InfoWhat are they going to do? Park down the street and wait for the signal?
Lol...interesting ploy to get people to rock up.
Do you actually know the details of what went on in Comms?
Do you know if they got different information at various stages of the dispatch?
Do you know if they were told the info they responded, then it got changed or updated after the initial turnout?
Do you have ANY facts, that aren't from the paging website?
Front up the Expiry date of the helmet to your LT's, Captain or BEO.
Is that a Expiry date?.............or a Best by date
As everyone else says..But i myself say..It is,but it isnt..cos a Year is 365 Days long...Maybe where you are.
Rural Fire Season: Over
Going by the radio traffic Elizabeth was sent COQ to One Tree Hill CFS.There was a BRT (sorry didn't see the number, it was getting dark and I was more focussed on getting coffee) at the staging area when we arrived at 8pm ish at One Tree Hill.
Didn't see it on the fire ground but would assume it wasn't just doing a spot of sight seeing. There were a couple of houses out near the main road that did have asset protection applied to them, so they were possible there.
Davo, don't be so hasty in dismissing the sightseeing angle
The MFS usually still get called for prevention on first callMate, the MFS dont have to go to everything you know.
I think them amount of fires re-attended by CFS / DEH over the years, far out-weighs those re-attended by SAMFS.Yeah but it was only a mattress.
Unless your saying its okay, because your not Professional in the CFS??
-Didn't think so...
MFS: *CFSRES INC082 08/03/09 23:31,RESPOND RUBBISH FIRE,CNR SOUTH RD & PORT RD,WEST HINDMARSH MAP 105 A 11 TG182,PUT IT OUT PROPERLY THIS TIME!!!,SAIR55 WDV249And they call themselves "Professionals"?
Elizabeth have never had a rescue before and still coped...
about time some of the 93M's went out in the lands of CFSYeah right theyd rather give them to Tonga than let the CFS have them.

1908994 10:40:52 25-01-09 MFS: *CFSRES INC023 25/01/09 10:41,RESPOND Vehicle Fire,JOHNS LANE,HAHNDORF MAP 159 G 7 TG128,FIRE IN THE AIR CONDITIONING UNIT OF A,TOUR BUS.,HAHN00 BRDG00 CFS Bridgewater ResponseLucky dip in town?
Ok i'm confused, Barker 95% of the time respond into Handorf to back them up, why Bridgewater this time??
So will an inquest on the MFS's handling of this fire occur? I believe it was MFS area going by the initial page, they were responded 1st up by themselves (even though it was a scheiße of a day)?what an absolute joke......a moderate sizes fire ( it can't even be called a big fire) and just about all the air assetts in the state are converged on one little bit of real estate.
Yeah yeah, I know its all as a response to Wangarry and the Coroner and all that crap......but u know....if someone else's town in SA burns today..then the same questions are going to be asked and the same barbs will be thrown....it's about time we had a really hard look at what we do with aircraft because this sort of kneejerk response is b/s. 100,000 people live in a bushfire prone zone called the Mt Lofty Ranges than do in a bit of mallee scrub on the outskirts of Pt Lincoln. Poor risk assessment here, imho. Sure...there will be public scrutiny of the decision, and even some tough questions, but it goes with making the tough calls.
Maybe something to do with the millions (dollar wise) in assets threatened/ lost.. ?
(Considering a couple of them are Prospect )
