Hi Cap'n,
I heard on de radio that the 'reloading' gear - the mixing with retardant gear, the retardant, pumps etc. is all in BLN. and that for the time being, it seems 'tis more 'convenient' (?) rather than truck it to YPPH.
YPPH cannot be 'that' busy these days that they cannot organise a few slots for the Herc.....
(One would think...)

RWY Works at Pearce (?) Dunno, just speculatin'......

Talk on de radio also about an additional 'heavy' arriving from the 'East' later today / this evening.
Type unknown.

Cheers
