So tell me does blackwood do so many rescues because people forget to open their eyes while driving up there??? Some freaky stuff happens on some pretty decent roads up there. :|
mmm... not quite sure where ya'r going there mundcfs...
Blackwood cover a fair area, and admittedly most has some pretty decent roads, but almost all of it is up and down hill, m,ost roads are extremely windy and a fair few are quite tight...
blackwood get quite a few rescues every year.. they do seem to have had a run of a few lately...
Ah Red helmet in the thick of the action - it must be Sturt Group :-o
Only Group I know of where Group Officers respond to Fixed Alarms.
Crankster 34 Only Group I know of where Group Officers respond to Fixed Alarms.
I don't thinks that happens anymore
Not having a dig at Blackwood just the idiots on the roads that manage to run off on straight roads etc...etc...
Off topic but I wonder which brigade did most RCR for the year !!
well combine each RCR brigades RCR stats and you will get it. personally i think stirling would have the most, then maybe naracoorte, then blackwood.
Barker would be up there with the Rescue Tally...
Nice pics macca.
Most MVA's attended was Stirling followed by Barker, Salisbury, and Dalkeith
are we talking actual cut outs though?
Nah couldn't be bothered looking in to it that much. As for cuts those four with Aldinga would still be up there.
i have a funny feeling that if we are talking about actual cut outs it would be between salisbury, barker and stirling...
i dont think country brigades would really come into the picture, although they woudl do there fair share...
For anyone who cares, according to promo site the MVA rescues are as follows.
Barker 39
Stirling 33
Salisbury 32
Dalkeith 25
How accurate this is i don't know as the prom site had our brigade down for a couple more rescue's than we actually did.
As for those numbers they can keep it, it would give me the sh**s doing that many rescues.
rescues seem to be pretty well all my brigade attend...
Macca - who gives a toss about the vests - the road appeared blocked - so whos driving through!!!!!
Mmm good to see a red helmet in the thick of it - interesting when none of the red helmets have participated in the RCR comps now for some time yet they feel the need to get in there - once a fire fighter always a fire fighter - hard to let go!
As for responding to fixed alarms - not officially, but they still ghost!
re the vests - just chucked that on there due to the comments in the last thread LMAO - the road was closed btw... crime scene apparently :?
yeah, had him right in there in the thick of it, cant hurt to have the experience on hand, plus i think they were a little on the light side with RCR operators....
