Believe that Baldivis are assisting with crews (unsure how many) but we (Singleton) are sending up an LT and maybe the 2.4 if things get interesting later.

We're sending the fleet (almost .. ) lol

LT1, LT2, 4.4 and the ICV for control.

1.4 will stay on station as we need something in the district.

Did not miss much, burned out a few pockets but spent most of the time at the ICV and running around a but. Good experience though for the new bloke

I reckon this rain will put a dampener (hohoho!) on the arsonists though!
