Thought as much... Thanks

If possible - can anyone list out the units on the ground on route to the Bullsbrook incident (to date).

Also, has this fire been classified now Swan Chief arrived - i.e. not under controlled, contained etc.

I keep missing transmisions. Thanks in advance.

Didnt think of that thanks for saying

Firebird 610/air attack went out with the 2 fixed wings, then 669, 671 dep per airport, 668 departed a little while later but returned about30 mins later using its rego as its callsign. Fb611 dep perth airport for obsvervation city, then i guess up to chittering fire.

Did the midnight till 6am shift on the Chittering bushfire. Very rugged terrain over a large area. The dozer driver(s) did an amazing job. Was able to drive the full perimiter (just) all morning. Slept until 1430.

On the shift before you auntys_eyes. We followed the dozer in to cut the containment line half way up the knoll on the eastern edge at about 10pm. He was amazing - made blacking out after that so much easier. Hard work before that trying to put a wet break in on eastern edge. our brigade on patrol tonight after 1800hrs
