Vic Bush Fires
Watched the telly last night and could'nt keep the tears out of my eyes. We sit around waiting for the job that we dont want to do, and when it comes its often too late. The intensity of the fires through the night, when we cant fly, made all aircraft obsolete. I am not suggesting that the Canadair is not an effective aircraft, but with available water sources, not really an option. You can buy a lot of SEAT'S and scatter them all over the country. Anyway, Hats off to the guys both on the ground and in the air who without a doubt saved far more than they actually lost.
