Sorry I've just got my net connected to my new house in Kalgoorlie, anyway about 11am on Sunday a RAAF c-130 from Perth had a fuel leak in one of its engines so they shut it down and land at Kal airport.

Police, Fire and Ambulance were all in attendence waiting on the taxiway (7 crew onboard). It landed without iccident and the tech's onboard fixed the leak and had them in the air several hours later.

marto :D

BTW, the police chit chat up here is awersome! boy they're under the pump.

Yer would have loved to have snapped up some shots but was only told by a paramedic here after the event :(
