So its a regional asset.....based at ellenbrook?
Is ellenbrook considered regional now is it?

Be interesting to see who gets our former LT and weather its used as a high season LT or used as a replacement for another station. If anyone sees it maybe post a picture up of its new life. LT308

As for the pump just make sure the throttle is cracked a little bit all the time. Any special reason for this Helitak? The pump and motor have changed too havent they. We are currently running a 9hp Briggs Vanguard and a Davey twin impeller pump. Am I right in saying that the new LTs use a Honda GX...

Well it sounds like our brigades Lt is getting replaced with a V8 one next week ( not sure if its a new one or just a exchange). I was wondering that now they have been out and about for a while now, how are brigades finding them and are there any tips or tricks that you have discovered during your ...
