As I was walking along mounts bay road after being horribly misguided when asking after Mr. G I saw numerous ambulances go past P1 without a problem, i,e no siren etc. But I agree, its kind of sad that police needed to provide an escort. The hawks only did 1 bog lap around Nedlands before going in, not like the rest. Most of my aircraft photo's was on my journey into Nedlands and coming out shortly after.

Anyway, getting back on the topic itself - I didn't notice Polair 61 up at all or the PC12 - Maybe i was busy treating casualties at the time, but did they appear at all?

It didn't fly over at all that I saw. During the fireworks there was a low chopper Nedlands side with his landing light on but I dunno who that was.

hmm - i was expecting to see it out and about - but the team and I were busy with casualties anyways...

The grey chopper you may have seen was the Channel 7 chopper - the new one I beleive they have - a Eucareli??

You did, but stupid me didn't look up hurlingham in the streetsmart or write it down did I! so I remembered South East and then got to Sean's FAP not even past the boat shed and he sent me the other direction which I must admit confused the hell out of me...maybe his map was upside down :roll:
