I posted this on Rotorheads before I saw this thread.

With the present on-going crisis and a possible increase in size and intensity why hasn't any large fixed-wing assets been flown in from the Northern Hemisphere over the last few days. The largest could be here overnight

As far as CAsA is concerned with the operation of such equipment, a declaration of a state of emergency should be made by the state and federal Govts which should include sidelining CASA or forcing fast tracking of approval.
