Jeez that old chestnut, usually always deliberate...Just wondering how far away those couple of fires over the last 48hrs down Rocky/Pt Kennedy were apart...sounds like deliberate also, although i'm presuming from afar.
PK/Rockingham fire was heading towards previous fires.
Sounds like there's another fire in Baldivis that I was confusing with this one??
Toottoot geog of that area is average, and there is some interference that's what I heard.
Sounds like Millsy broke the 44, they require a tech for it.

South Coogee is cruising on outduties looking for some action. Came across a car fire and put it out but 6AR was annoyed as it was in Hope Valleys fire zone and they were turning out.

Port Kennedy does not have a Control channel only ground controller channel for Helitacs which is what they were using 98 for.

Just got back from Forestdale. I was at the ZOO earlier then walking out saw the smoke. Headed to Jandakot to get bomber 5 and 8 come and go, and then headed down to Forestdale to try and get the helitacs. I was there for a little bit and only 767 was flying about, all the others had dissapeared. Then as I was driving away, 668 669 rocked up....grrrr I couldn't turn around as I had the little fella in the car with me. Pics will go up shortly.

It's been burning since last night. Mum saw a marked 4WD flying down the freeway to get to it after midnight. Helitacs 669, 670 and Air Intel 611 have been flying around this morning. Pics in the Pictures forum.
