Good example of a First Aid Triage incident, cos there wont be enough ambulances for it!

Assuming that if they might need 3 or 4 sent to Adelaide, would it be worthwhile responding RFDS to land on the Road? (somehow where-ever)

update: 1 DOA, 1 Entrap, 8 injured....not nice indeed.

Second Alarm vehicle fire??

Im guessing Christies 431 is booked K0 (broken?)

strange that 421 was missing from the 2nd response...

You spoke too soon Zippy  it looks like either Rescue 51 or Rescue 53 has been dispatched to the accident

Well then, no need to enforce your crankyness onto others unfairly.

This site wouldn't be a firefighting site without being able to take shots at people when they screw up.

Unfairly?  Personal attacks arent supported on this site and i viewed the post in question as a personal attack....have a problem? take it up with firefrog.

So going by this statement you wont be making any further remarks about Gambier group or your ex-brigade captain?

Don't be suprised if you get headaches Zippy...............With a head like yours it ought to ache!

Set up your own paging software....get the right version of PDW & upload it to your own site...then you can have what ever you like!!

I saw that one, car & caravan got the wobbles up and jacknifed, facing the opposite direction.No fire involved.401 was COQ at O'Halloran Hill and Christies Downs 439 put a stop on everyone else.

Morphett Vale made it to the end of the Sthn Expressway.

439 and Seaford were responded because that road is partly MFS and partly CFS area, Morphett Vale would have been responded because 43 only had one truck in station and therefore they would have been going as 43's second truck (C Class risk now those pesky car fires) and then I can only assume 401 (which was at 42) went because you cannot use CFS as your second truck without responding another MFS pump as well.

Also there is a response plan in place for Stage 2 of the Southern Expressway (Becah road South to Main South road) that says that all CFS appliances respond to the Southern end and MFS appliances to the Beach road end, that way whichever direction the traffic is flowing they will still be able to get onto the Expressway. It was actually for this one and only reason that Seaford were issued with the rapid intervention gear, the theory being that if the Christies trucks were unable to go against the traffic or the Expressway was blocked with cars that Seaford would still be able to make a start from the southern end.

Things not so rosy up in the Port???

[rescue5271]

They have not been good up at Port for sometime....

[49194]

You know the guys are P/A do you Bill?

After personally speaking to the S.O the other week, I think you statement is a little blase..

Sure, like all Retained/Vol stations, everyone can have some difficulty during the day for crew. But to say things 'have not been good' is slightly over the top.

[rescue5271]

I guess you only go by what one member of the station say to you at the time,we all find it hard to get a full crew does not matter if you are paid or vol....

[Heavy Rescue]

I dont think it is any shock to anyone that Pt Augusta have been struggling lately, you see quite a number of messages requesting more crew from them or mr McNamee letting everyone know that one or two crew are not enough.

It's interesting listening to the retained guys, there are not too many occassions that they get out the door in under 5 mins, most of the time is 7 or 8, and then there are some stations that struggle to crew at all.

Just goes to show that paying people isn't the answer to crewing issues.
