not unusual anymore

the RFDS has implemented a policy in which they refuse to fly any patients to the city from the riverland, yorke Peninsula and the southern end of the mid-north anymore!  wouldn't it be nice to be able to pick and choose your work and defer it onto another agency?!!

as a nursing student who has completed attachment days with both adelaide and port augusta RFDS bases i would suggest that unless it is a retrieval (not all rfds jobs are) that by the time you factor in the 45 minutes it takes them to get airborne after recieveing call combined with flying time.......it may actually be quicker to drive them into town from yorke peninsula. (ps: wallaroo now has 5 ATS officer's)

[rescue5271]

Understand it has something to do with the green stuff(money) and that the cost of fuel and running cost,they will still be doing medivacs...That might explan why we are seing the chopper down here more often these days...They tell me SAAS used to have their own aircraft years ago and they gave them to RFDS in the end....

My theory:  Response was based on the "Barossa Highway, Gawler East" address rather than the extra information given.

Thats a fair distance for Mt Compass, about 25kms to that scene, considering it's only about 4km for MFS, and 8km for SES.  And Goolwa is probably closer than Compass as well

[uniden]

well at least the correct resources were responded without too much delay though.

[bittenyakka]

it reccon it would depend on traffic from compass or goolwa

I can see your point, but considering that SAAS is struggling with it's current workload in metro - it's hardly smart to send a metro resource out on a country transfer.

whilst some of these cases are RV's - there are a large number of known and documented cases where a crew drives to Renmark or Berri from metro and return - thus blowing your theory of it being faster out of the water.

PS: thank you morgan, for informing me of Wallaroo RMTS - which started 4 years ago!

PPS: Yes - I'm taking the piss!! :evil:

[Alan (Big Al)]

it reccon it would depend on traffic from compass or goolwa

18km from Goolwa to Victor (dead flat all the way)

25km from Compass to Victor (quite hilly)

But anywho Hindmarsh Valley and the mets lads would have been there pretty quick and had it over in a jiffy.

And definatly not suggesting we should have been called either. :wink: In case anyone was thinking that. :-)

[Zippy]

lol theres a point where its a cluttered scene...pretty close to it me thinks...

[Zippy]

Ceduna's 2nd Alarm brigade's are a fair distance away, and they actually serve a large area as "the BA/RCR/Hazmat Brigade" in the region.

So there 2nd Appliance rolling is quite vital i assume.

[rescue5271]

Welcome to remote area firefighting......Not sure if they have the man power but if they did may be time for a 3 pump at ceduna???
