Bomber response
« on: November 15, 2009, 01:05:26 PM »
I am not sure what criteria are used for establishing the bomber zones but some of them in suburbia seem a bit dumb. Especially with MFS and CFS appliances being on the road so quickly bombers could maybe be used on request only.

CFS: *CFSRES: BOMBERS 583, 584 AND RESCUE 53 RESPOND GRASS FIRE, FLAGSTAFF HILL, 248 DEGREES,
29 KMS FROM WAB. INC NO 873128 > 15/11/2009 2:17:57 PM

then

CFS: BOMBER STATUS 15/11/09 FOR INFO: BOMBERS 583 /584 AND RESCUE 53 RETURNING WAB. SMALL
FIRE, NIL DROPS. > 15/11/2009 2:31:13 PM

If there on active standby due to predicted FDI, then they go to anything inside the zone. Id rather have them straight away, than when its already too late for them to make any real differance.

By the way.... get a map and look at that location.... zone seems dumb? Sturt gorge one side of the road and chambers gully 1/2km the other way.

Think about the political issues aswell. How quick would the media jump if they found out a bomber wasn't responded when it should have been.  Lets keep the PRZ's for bombers and auto dispatch them.
