Dont know what hot fire you did helitac but that is def not the HOT FIRE thats run for VFRS or BFS it is 1 & 1/2 days of hose drills and thereoy foolowed but the afternoon of the reral thing on the Pad after this its every metro brigade 2 times a year straight into it with all pads used.
and yes Sinbin its a lot of flaking but 1st time is a buzz if you have a good crew the SO will up the heat abit for you.

Re: HOT FIRE COURSE
i think what helitak_670 is referring to is the structual fire fighting course where that is the only hot stuff you do.

Re: HOT FIRE COURSE
just copy and paste the IMG code directly (You may have to do ctrl + C as it doesn't seem to like Right Clicks)
eg, for the first one
which comes out as:
![Image](http://i711.photobucket.com/albums/ww113/wasaint/Hot%20Fire/firebrigade058.jpg)
Nice pics BTW
eg, for the first one
Code: Select all
