All Equipment discussion / Re: Heavy use of appliances
« on: November 26, 2007, 11:48:06 AM »
Salisbury could give up some area that would drop there calls down dalkeith did it others have done it i understand that some times they are required but do cfs brigades in urban areas need such a big urban primary area mfs can get there faster.

 it sucks that the busy brigades dont always get what they want but least they have something that can do the job. i know quorn ses require a new truck well there first truck they have a hilux and a trailer and they have to wait till 08/09 to get a truck so i think cfs has it pretty good when it comes to trucks etc.
     

Salisbury could do well to be shut down. Its surrounded by MFS stations.


On face value lots of people say Salisbury is in the middle of MFS stations and so should be shut down or not receive new pumpers etc. What people dont see is the following, the amount of times Salisbury are covering for MFS who at Salisbury are out of area more than they are in area, the amount of jobs CFS run as the primary pump, the amount of jobs that they support MFS at, often at the request of MFS who dont seem to be able to effectively manage their resources in the northern suburbs without a significant reliance on CFS running as the second pump etc. With all this in mind if these urban interface brigades are being used the way they currently are they need to be equipped with the right equipment, regardless to what MFS stations are based around them.

All Equipment discussion / Heavy use of appliances
« on: November 22, 2007, 10:37:07 AM »
I was just on the promo site and looking at the call statics for 06/07. For the year Morphett Vale did 460 calls and Salisbury did 445, i could not see too many other brigades that came close to this. The concern I then had was looking at the equipment that these two brigades are running, they both have old 24p's that probally run to the majority of those 440+ job's, Why does the CFS not recognise this and issue them with new 34P's or type two pumpers, these two brigades are pulling higher stats than some MFS brigades and look at the equipment they are having to work with to do this, hardly seems right. I would suggest that their 24P's are no longer the right applinace for them to run with for the workloads and type of jobs they are attending on a daily basis.

Does anyone know if there will be any new type 2 pumpers over the next 12 months or do you think they may be trying to use 34P's instead?

« on: August 19, 2007, 11:41:05 AM »
bajdas- Not sure on any definite answers but i know emergency vehicles in Melbourne use the tram tracks to their advantage often. When traffic is heavy the tram tracks act as a clear path for the emergency vehicle to travel when trams are not in the way. It makes me wonder if SAAS,MFS,SAPOL etc will be having any P1 training for city driving using the new tram tracks etc?

Red Truck Wonderland-agreed, red truck, white truck who cares, MFS people are Ok also, most of the good ones are the ones who recognise the importance of both services and know how to work well together with CFS as often required urban and rural settings,  :-P

NotRedAdair- i dont think you would of found any MFS bashing on this forum, all you would find is people, some professionals and some not that are passionate about fire fighting, as mentioned many times, people don't care what colour the truck is coming down their street as long as it is there to help them, vollies do it for the love and often risk their own lives to protect others, and often risk their own life to assist MFS in doing their job, so why mot promote the fire service in the light it should be and forget about trying to create the divide, it may not be to long before MFS and CFS all are one service anyway.

On-shift-Firie, from you introduction it sounds like you are one of these old fart MFS guys that needs to retire.Get with the times and see the benefits of both services and the great job both services do, often working together with each other. It is people like you that drive a wedge between the services.
