I often used to wonder at Meekatharra what would happen if even the regular Jetstream had an oops. The only fire vehicle within 700km was an elderly 2wd tanker with an 8hp pump, 2000l of water (no foam) and octagenarian volunteer crew.

Even Essendon has no on-airport fire service, but why should you get a higher service than the local schoolbus?
