eastern headfire being attacked buy all aircraft have supressed it to an extent but still has a considerable amount of heat with flarer ups very possible now using a heliatack on the south easten flake to supress active fire.

DM beelair arrived at secrete habour asking 6ip if police have been advised (i think so) because there i major traffic problems the biggest being mandurah rd x baldivis rd. DM requesting if police have been advised they need help. sounds like a mess to me.

6IP just advised DM police are in attendence but no road closures in place only slow traffice filltering through in one lane.

1732
heliatacks informing ground controller and ICV that all flankes and head fire are contained at secret habour fire will need considerable mopping up done by ground crews but will put in one more drop and return to perth airport. Job well done

3rd alarm fire Thomas Rd Kings Park.

ICV on the way, bigger than first expected.

I think I heard DM Metro/Central, and Malaga 2.4 turning out (I missed the initial Perth appliances).

EDIT:

0004 Os park also turning out stating 4th alarm?
Also Canning Vale 2.4
0007 DM West Coast mobile

There is also 'six' fires in Carrabooda which the Wannaroo/Quins area are attacking at the moment (though someone just said now mopping up)?

[newbie]

4th alarm now, Did I hear mundajong call in 6 fires?

The six fires are down mundijong/Jarrahdale way

Kings park control just been advised by Osborne Park that there's an uncooperative male running around the area that won't leave.

Edit:
Control channel 97
Western Sector 96

Kings park control just been advised by Osborne Park that there's an uncooperative male running around the area that won't leave.

He probably was on some "party pills" and thought he was in northbridge :)

In the end the Kings Park fire was a 4th alarm with two FRS 3.4's and three LT's from Mundaring.

One news article put it was 4 ha and another article put it a 2.5ha
