Hey Guys,

 

Things on the fire front in Northern Ontario are movin'' pretty good out this way.  The N/W fire region is on a Full Fire Ban and travel on some roads is limited as are bush operations.

 

The A/P at YMG & YSP look like an HAI convention with everthing from 2x6''s to 61''s along with 415''s.  I even saw a 369 on the ramp YSP next to Silverline''s AS350.

 

We got em all in this neck of the woods

 

There are approx 6 fires burning within a 60 mile radius of YMG is my understanding.  1 in particular (Wawa 13) has been doubling in size everyday since last weekend.

 

If any of you guys will be passing through, I live in YSP, work in YTJ and would be more than willing to hookup with you for a cool one.  Just drop me a PM.

 

Cheers and play safe.  The skies are pretty busy out here.

The helicopter industry survives on disasters....yell FIRE or FLOOD or any number of other natural or man-made catastrophes, and the sky darkens with transient Helicopters...What a life

 

The CIFFC.CA website says that 2 heavies are hired in ONT, anyone know what type and who is operating them?

Rumor has it that there is 1 possibly 2 61''s in YMG.  I cant confirm as I havent had the chance to get up there.  Maybe on the w/e.  Lots of mediums around though.  Even a very nice Yellow & White one.......great paint job and kept extremely clean when I saw it the other day.
 

 

I might head up to YMG on the W/E so I''ll let you know who''s who in the zoo up there.

 

Cheers

T5,

 

Sorry Bud,  I was going by the airport at a high rate of speed as my commute is done in a police cruiser.  It looked like it said  Silver.....something or other the side.  I assumed it might be Silverline.  Silver and Burgandy ship parked right next to a 369.

 

My mistake......not too sure who it was.

 

Cheers

Hey 407 capital D

 

I''ve been semi-successful at tracking down a few machines around the continent thanks. Honest, it ain''t for me! Of course a finders fee may come in the form of more work for me though.

 

I perused the photo gallery and saw a lovely image of a greyhaired old guy doin'' his thing. I believe the photo was sent in by some photographer named "Watermelon". Must have been just before he had enough and put down his camera to take care of a little business

Catcha later
