Not having a go at you Alex, just at Virginia.

Sounds to me like they are telling their GO and DGO's they will respond, but not following through

Funny, I suggested just that - get a drip torch, and burn it all, but then you have to wonder if the numpty lighting it would just find somewhere else that would get a way a whole lot easier.  At least these are contained by bitumen (in most cases).

One of the fires jumped the road and burnt out about 5 or so hectares not long ago.

I just saw this...

Good point, yes. But shouldn't they still be paged for a Grass Fire, in their area? Isn't that the main thing CFS do?

It's not their area. It's MFS area.

At Sellicks, not far from Aldinga, we've been told by Kyeema Group to respond in what seems appropriate, as A/F have messed up before.

Mr Raven.

Do not confuse yourself or others.

Adelaide Fire has not "messed up".

Adelaide Fire has sent the response as per the SACAD data entered.

Please seek out accurate information before posting.

Thanks

[vsteve01]

I would say the correct action would be to ask AF to add the correct resource and to stop the other.

I was merely stating what our Group Officer has told us. We have been told to respond in the appliance we think is appropriate.

EXACTLY...I went over our brigades response data with neighbouring brigades before entry into SACAD to make sure it was correct. unsure if your brigade did the same RAVEN if not I'd be asking why the brigade didn't ave the opportunity!

Surprise surprise our group has no issues....what is the saying...Proper Preparation prevents p*ss poor performance!!

[Alan (Big Al)]

Unless the job is for a specialist resource such as RCR or Hazmat etc then SACAD will pick the truck that has been K5 the longest, if its a rural fire and you have a 34P and a 24 and the 34P has been "online" the longest then that truck is the one that will be picked..
Hence why brigades definitely should be taking the appliance they deem appropriate UNLESS that resource has been specifically requested for the job.

I think this is pretty much correct but am happy to be proven otherwise. anyone from AF care to add or change the above??

[flyonthewall]

Might as well send everything you've got then people!

[Raven]

A certain Brigade near me that I won't name, have done this, and still do.
