Air/Ground has three ordered. CDF A/G5 (159.270 t92.8,) CDF A/G12 (159.405 t192.8,) and 166.9375. I have a feeling A/G5 didn’t work earlier in the incident and they ordered up A/G12 later in the day.
Yeah - and it sounds like they’re sticking with A/G3 for today despite all that. LCES today folks.
Per North ops update, this is an AEU incident
Lots of rotary wing and no HELCO. I’m guessing the agency ship will fill the role in the interim. Stay vigilant and safety first. Even if it means having some tough conversations.
CalFire Team 5 has been assigned.
