Dezza - they might just be 1 person with multiple accounts, has happened before. But i must admit they "claim" to be professionals, but dont act like it. Besides, who do they call when it gets all too much for them (and it doesnt take much)? The CFS.

Country Fire Service / Re: Courier article 1/08/07 about hills CFS
« on: August 15, 2007, 07:27:12 AM »Isnt this duplicating resources? Especially where you say Barker keep a Pump, like posted in previous threads? Oh i forgot, if you put the MFS in its all for the better but if it's a CFS brigade there it's a duplication of services.
Lets say, for example, SAMFS move into Heysen group. They set up a station at Mt. Barker housing a GP Pump and a Telesquirt. Pretty basic set up for a mix of domestic/industrial buildings as well as being primary rescue for the area. Mt Barker CFS then keep a Pumper(with some rescue capability eg: RIK) and a 34/34P rural appliance. Other brigades in the area stay the same. All this does is increase the level of service provided to the community and has little impact on the surrounding brigades. SACFS can still handle rural jobs, and still backs up SAMFS for all your urban needs.

CFS are a long way behind in comparison

« on: August 02, 2007, 04:51:09 PM »Recruiting has already started in certain areas.QuoteWhat ever happens there must be something done very quickly because training and organising these crew will take a good chunk of the time left before FDS.
I don't think anyone has ever suggested it will be happening within the next 12 months. There has been no money allocated in the budget for this program and as far as I can tell it is all still a dream in the mind of a couple of people in Waymouth Street.
If it it happens the earliest we would see anyone on the fireground would be late 2008 early 2009.

So 4 appliances to a car fire, but only 2 to a house fire? Still bizzare if you ask me, so why dont MFS send 4 appliances to a car fire in MFS area?

SA Firefighter General / Re: CFS Urbanisation
« on: July 27, 2007, 10:05:27 PM »I just query why no one from these "active urban brigades" are on here saying they are being worked too hard, or don't have the time.. - I am yet to read a statement from a person in one of these 'busy' urban brigades saying they have a problem with it..Thats probably because they dont. Just other people in "less busy" brigades assuming they do.

Im not sure if these brigades "gave away" these areas which you speak of. The part about less calls? These brigades are doing more calls now compared to when these areas were theirs, so to speak.

When one person is monitoring up to 9 cfs channels it is just not possible to guarantee a response!

only thing that lets the CFS side of things down is the boots, have to make sure you pull the old explorers up to give that little bit more protection in case of ride up.

I think it's been said elsewhere but if your pager goes off it means you have a call and you respond to the address given. How hard can it be?
