We had some serious fires on the Sunshine Coast over the last few days, and most prominent with belly tanks were the B214 and the Dauphin, and aided by 427 and 407 with longline buckets, on the fixed-wing side were a Pawnee (what it looked like from a distance) on floats and a belly tank, and an Aerocommander spotting for a 737 tanker.
No SEATS parked, they were right into it, though they had to move clear when the 737 made some passes.
They did the job, no complaints about helicopter noise - (but wait till next week and they forget about the fires) and there was a sizeable crowd watching the lads suck water from the lake in the golf course.
