I'm not sure about other brigades, but all the Quinns, Wannaroo and TwoRocks BFB appliances have the new WAERN radios now. I think we're doing the training on them pretty soon.

Yeah we've got QRFB plates for our LT's 01 - 03 and for our 3.4 (QRFB 34) and i think we've saved 44 if n when we ever get a 4.4 hehe. A large number of our vollies have QRFB plates on their own vehicles. I think its such a good way to proudly show "yes i'm a BFB volly and proud to show it"...

Also is there a standard for a minimum requirement for ambulance setup, ie seating, structure etc. I think (note a presumption) you'll find that the guys at P&W design each new "mark" (eg Mk4 Fords, Mk5 Mercs or however they are classifying them now) with the clients who are buying th...

Can i ask whats the justification for a medic to have a high performance vehicle like a GT? just because it is in attendence at a race meet doesn't mean its necessary to require one, cos at the end of the day they will still be waiting for your arrival if there is a serious crash.

Glad they caught those three from the skyline, lock 'em up n throw the key away, our boys n girls in blue don't deserve to get hurt because of the stupidity of people like that. Best wishes for a speedy recovery to the officers involved.
