A training video produced by CFA in 2004 on effective tactics for fighting grassfires. The video has been recommended by current CFA Chief Officer Euan Ferguson for viewing by CFA members ahead of the 2011/12 fire season.

no this tactic is only used on low intensity fires with flame heights below the 1 1\2 to 2 meter mark and the main attack is done by the forward branch which hits in front of the truck so it doesn't matter plus you can easily just turn onto the black

Answer. No. It is safe to work on a running grass fire alongside it by driving on un-burnt ground. This is because if we have water on the fire, it's probably unlikely to flare up at our faces, and in the event it does, our crew are very well protected. With the tankers equipped with wheel sprayers, it makes a wet line as we drive. Please explain further on how you think it would mean us having to 'kiss our asses goodbye.'

Do you have personal fire shelters?

They need bigger trucks with massive capacities, and hauling trailers with fuel in them for maximum power and robot controlled nozzles like Soviet firetrucks designed for forest fires, these monster machines are HUUUGE and can withstand up to 800 degrees of heat, some military versions can do 1000 degrees for a short period designed for use in rocket sites and airports.

Not necessarily. If there's a slashed track to work from, that can work just as effectively as the burnt ground. It entirely depends on the situation; every fire will be different.

question. shouldnt you be putting a grass fire out by driving on the grass which has already been burnt. if a strong wind happens to come across you may aswell kiss your asses goodbye.
