An R.N.Z.A.F. Iroquois helicopter has its monsoon bucket filled with water during a training week-end held by the Canterbury Provincial Fire Brigades’ Association at Kaiapoi on Saturday and yesterday. The crewman leaning out of the door is Warrant Officer Chris Brownie. The pilot for the exercise was Flight Lieutenant Dave Korrell, and the co-pilot Pilot Officer Andrew Percy. About 40 firemen from fire brigades as far afield as Twizel and Waikari attended the course, which is held every two years. Topics covered included explosives, pumps, rural fires, disaster co-ordination, water attack, arson, and fire investigation. —Photograph by DAVID wethey
