In what year did Kangaroo Island brigades which was previously Region 3 become a part of Region 1?

Clue....in 1994 they were still Region 3 :wink:

Pipster · October 30, 2006, 12:09:48 PM

I reckon the KI Group has always been in Region 1...there were at least two Groups on KI previously, which eventually merged to form the current KI Group within the last 8 years or so.... :|

Got some idea that one may have been the Dudley Group...?

No, KI only joined region 1 when they did the big shake up of regions and went from 9 to 6 regions... Don't know the year though...

Pipster · October 30, 2006, 01:11:20 PM

Kangaroo Island may have changed regions, but the KI Group I don't reckon existed then..... :|

The first organised fire fighting unit in this state was Wirrabara. According to the plaque in the township at the entrance to the forest.

Cost is irrelevant CFA call them Webers...for obvious reasons why would you build a truck to drive through a burnover :evil:

Deadman Zone Training...safety zone,anchor point :-)

5271rescue · November 13, 2006, 02:57:37 PM

there a great truck and they have been tested to 1000 degrees

Scania_1 · November 13, 2006, 04:31:44 PM

You would probably build a fire king to survive a burnover to save lives. Quite a few deaths have occurred in forest fires in SA over the years.

CFS_Firey · November 13, 2006, 11:03:16 PM

So back on topic.... How much would one cost?

Scania_1 · November 14, 2006, 12:39:52 PM

I think around the $600,000 mark give or take a few bucks.
