Hey all,
just wondering if any of you VFRS members have done this course?
If so what did you think of it?
I got word today that my application for the end of next month has been accepted. WAHOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!

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.

And excuse the spelling 1 too many clarets tonight LOL

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