Isn't just people being on the end of hoses that they have to think about. The benefit of time and experience will perhaps teach you that! At any rate, this isnt the right thread for discussing this..
why does it matter whose on the end of the hose as long as they put the fire out? all the dms are supposed to be ther to do the organising im not havin a go at ya just tryin to make sense of why brigades which are closer dont get sent, fesa thinkin logically as usual!

Same job. Look at the road map. Fire appears to be heading towards Scott St X Helena Valley Rd
Thats heading for Helena Valley Primary School. Any news about the fire reaching that far?
FESA advises residents at home in the locality of Gooseberry Hill, Helena Valley and Boya that a bush fire which started earlier this afternoon on the Zig Zag Scenic Drive has been contained as at 7.30pm.
Local residents are, however, advised that they should remain vigilant in case of break-outs.
Mopping up operations are currently under way and firefighters will continue to monitor the area for at least the next 24 hours.
Drivers in the area should take care as emergency service personnel and vehicles are still operating on roads.
Was at one up there on Coulston Rd just a couple of years ago. This one seems to be further east, heading towards Saw Drive. Quite a bit of panic on the radio at present.
