NSW Bushfire: in midwinter!

Anthony Gray, one of our RFS contributors, has asked me to put up some photos of the helicopters operating on the fire going for the past 4 days over in NSW. It started in Bulli Tops on Friday and the winter weather produced high winds to fan it over to Darkes Forest Road, the same winds made the conditions very demanding.

Anthony made mention of Franksy from National, Kevin from Helitreck and Josh from Touchdown, with apologies to the Parkair 4 driver and Sydney Helicopter machine, he didn't have your names

It's a bit much when you have to wear your thermals whilst flying on fire ops
