SA Firefighter

yes i believe the brigade has used to air support, and the rcr gear was actually one of i believe 8 or so brigades that had the rcr rapid intervention, with cfs taking the stance of what it costs to maintain them, and if actual rcr coverage is needed, then a full rcr kit will be supplied, i do believe i saw a page from a brigade with a volvo pumper which did not conform to the ideals either,

I see it constantly from the metro ses units, that their priority 1 jobs seem to take a long time to get mobile,- In cfs, if the truck on the call out doesn't go mobile asap, they get defaulted automatically,

Metro ses units seem to take up to 20 mins to get mobile, they should have the same system and default automatically  to the next unit, cfs or mfs, or at least get the other unit/service mobile until they can get crew

No More Required DO

if you require that sort of information (for offical purposes), you can aquire that via offical channels, e.g your regional HQ, i cannot see any reason why you will need them, just because you are curious

i beg to differ, doesnt matter when its called in...bike event or not, if one of the tacks or nails went into a high pressure bike tyre it can pop, and if the rider is at speed around a corner, will most probally result in injury, ...injury prevention is than the cure

yeah thats how ive left it, he did seem to favour our group a bit... being a local... just think u could have a really EXCITED guy for that new pumper lol

pip- not correct place to be putting up rego but yes i have it::
Shane- not that im aware of, hes not a member of cfs or even st john

well looks like our old mate that 'assisted' us at mva.s and the like with his old vp commodore wagon badged up as 'emergency command' and the names of each emergency services agency is back....in a all new blue vt commodore already badged up as emergency command and a nice big aerial!!! No orange light yet though!!! ....   
When he came into work i quizzed him on it and he told me that its is own buisness and he gets called upon to help us, the mfs and saas with there radio work and that he used to drive euan around in 1 of his 6 cars that were stored around the place ...region 1 and 4 , one at -+ and 3 at 6

st john thinking of getting grn pagers straps?

i cant speak for everyone but i joined cfs for CFS, no matter what group or region or headquarters, ill put up my hand if im free, we are alll volleys and some of us will... some of us wont and the paid staff know that, so for the negative why worry? it doesnt concern you.   the people that say yes know what they are in for and are obviously happy to do the job...

hi,
just wondering what lights other brigades use for scene lighting(not run off truck)e.g lighting up front of house for ba jobs, rcr....our brigade currently use the halogen lights 2x150W on each stand, but we find the bulbs blow all the time and they are now up for replacement (the whole light) do other brigades use LED? other lights? we run ours off a generator

so matt does that mean we are going to have to buy the new version for it to work?

to true pip!!

its doosh brains like you ,that portray a negative image and attitude of cfs, brigades like dalkeith, salsbury, tea tree gully, burnside, athelstone, happy valley, morphett vale and seaford provide some of the best trained and well knowleged volly fire fighters in the state and you wanna get rid of?
what brigade are you from? be intresting to know.....

anyword on the current 34p's, i know some of the 34's have been delievred to angle park, so they should be relased soon? and any1 got any pics of the 34p's

im sure we could send a strike team, composite of crews from all regions,

i would like to see cfs send over people, since our fdi's arent going to be high for at least a week, other states have sent some fireys...

I agree, we don't know what is going on down there so we can't judge!!! All we can hope is that the solution ends up being in the best interests of the LOCAL community, 

yes morphett vale now have the dennis, seaford will be getting there current 24p in 2 weeks.... and then will get a new 34p in febuary...the dennis as been refurbished again and give approx 5 years or operational service

,

the dennis is back and online. finally

our pumper has been taken offline... down to get repairs to the pump if they can find the parts...been over the pits apprently sounds like a bearing or something of that nature.
just waiting for them to open it up to hear what the actual problem is...
we have mclaren flat 34 in its place atm. and region 1 24p is at mclaren flat...
we dont see getting pumper back soon or at all if its a big problem with the pump

nothing much, not very big at all!
we got there and left within 10 mins...
not even a clean up

the emt service
is now up the 3 ambos
all old ford longreachs
any1 else got more info
