    Hi mate, just wondering whether you or you have an experienced crew member on your hose lay, could push along your western most end of the hose lay and then follow the river around, just to give me a bit of a sit rep of what they can see inside the block at probably the western most point of the burn over.

    Yeah, mate, I'm just up towards the east, pretty much directly north of the M on the map. There's a good chunk of fuel in here that hasn't been burnt, yeah, because I think Brett tried to light the light, but that might not have taken, so once the ignition guys are done, I'll get them back up here and we can hopefully get as much of it done as possible.

    Sturt probably got 10 minutes of us, happy to wait out and just see where it develops, some areas are getting a bit smoky as you can imagine, but you won't need to be in there anyway, but that heat heal looks like it's going to come together quite nicely.
  5. Sierra Sector

    Roger mate, there's one bit from our angle where there isn't a lot of smoke developing, that is the area that you've just filled in, over.
  6. Firebird 504
    17:23:25
    11.4s
    Yeah, that's affirmative. That's below Andy's hand ignition, and we've slowly brought our pills to the south towards that, trying to avoid that creep line.
  7. Sierra Sector

    11.3s
    Awesome work, mate. Yeah, I guess if you've got 10 minutes left, if there's any areas you think we need to discuss, let's talk about that now and get it done, over.
  8. Firebird 504
    17:23:49
    15.4s
    Yeah, copy that. The only area that's obvious to me is the fire scar, because there's just nothing coming out of that eastern end of Sierra sector, but I think it's just due to the lack of fuel in there from the bushfire.
  9. Sierra Sector
    17:24:05
    12.7s
    Yeah, I'm happy to let that just be. The only concern I ever had through there was if it wanted to punch out there, but it hasn't wanted to burn all day, so I think we're all sweet there. Over.

504 helicopter discussed fire behaviour and ignition strategies with Sierra Sector, considering fire spread and weather impacts.

    Yeah, I'll affirmative that'll push in, but if they tell us other item on the ground, yeah, we can drop down below, but at this stage they're lighting north of the Winter burn, and it looks like with the wind it's pushing through alright. ✓ checked

    17:13:02
    16.5s
    Copy mate, a little blockage still, our way off that main creek line, I guess my main issue with putting any core air with yourself would be if we're going to impact the mannegums, so maybe just have a think about that over.

    13.0s
    Yeah, yeah, you've been doing a great job. So, this one just said probably this stuff and his lighting, is that going to push enough? Or if you have to add more in, do you think that might impact that crew?
  7. Firebird 504
    17:13:46
    18.3s
    I could put some more in on the northern side of the Manigums, north of Andy One, and that would put backing fire through there at lower intensity if you did. Current fire behaviour tells me that it may not push through the creek line.

  9. Firebird 504

    19.7s
    We're just watching that last line, number 7 area, develop, so that'll give us a better indication of whether the ignition will carry through, but under current fire behaviour, anything that pushes through that gully north of Andy's ignition is going to be pretty mild by the looks of it.
  10. Sierra Sector

    Not a lot at all. There is a bit of a high of Point Ridge moving down to the westernmost point of Sierra, and I'm wondering if you wanted us to fill it in. I was just cautious of what Andy was doing, but there is a reasonable area that we could come back and start filling in for you, if you like, reasonably safely. ✓ checked
