First pumper is out the door in roughly 1 minute. Thats 1 minute it took them to wake up at 3am, go down to the engine bay, get dressed into PPE, get on board the truck and respond. Keep in mind the pumper has a crew of 5 fire fighters who all need to accomplish this. I would call that pretty good and would like to see some of the people commented on here about the slow response time do the same. The other trucks are you can see where dispatched at later times in the video as more resources were being called for as the incident escalated. From the time of their dispatch the aerial appliance took 1 and a half minutes to respond, the rescue pumper 50 seconds and the rescue 1 and a half minutes, again, all under the same circumstances as the first pump. Also keep in mind these fire fighters were dedicating their night to protecting the people of Sydney, spending an important event away from their family to serve others, they don't deserve to be criticised, nor should they be because as far as I see it they performed as best they could.
Agree your point , Also every turnout may be their last turn out because the Firefighters didn't what the real situation has before they arrived the scene .In some critical situation ,the officer may get injured seriously or even die in their line of duty. Please give the greatest appreciate to every fire fighters,paramedics and law enforcement officers who protecting us.
Sydney Emergency All our emergency services here in Aus are pretty good. The Media and People always give them criticism but in reality they don't understand how hard it is.
I salute this brave men and women, who are known as firefighters , they sacrifice their lives so that others can live. long live the firefighters around the world.
Not sure why the two different colours: all Aussie emergency vehicles have them. Maybe to deal with the differing conspicuity of the colours in different lighting conditions (sunny day, overcast, etc.); although I'd be surprised if that much science went into it. If there was some science I'd think that all the lights would be synchronised: much better for spatial locating by drivers, particularly at night.
@@clivewalters1061 funny enough they did a study and found that blue lights are easier to see in the nighttime. Lots of the trucks here in Canada are turning 50/50.
Qld added blue lights back around 2004 due to many accidents involving emergency vehicles. I was amazed at how much more visible the emergency vehicles where with blue and red lights . Qld ambulance and some new fire trucks are moving towards USA sirens now.
Imo opinion emergency vehicles with 1 colour ljghts are looking cooler, but vehicles with red and blue are safer - if someone is colorblind to red, he will see blue and vice versa. Some countries use onlu blue beacause not only emergency vehicles use red light and people could think those red lights are brake lights.
That's the paging board that lets the crews know which appliance/s is requirred. F (Flyer), R (Runner), RP (Rescue Pumper), S (Salvage/Heavy Rescue), A (Aerial), LSV (Logistics Support Vehicle).
Agreed, everyone thinks we have to be high speed even though that’s the leading cause of mistakes and injury. I’m an example of having my driver break the bay door from rushing. Honestly move quick on scene.
Other appliances where already on scene and fighting the fire. These appliances where being called for individually as the alarm level rose, apart from the flyer which has 30 seconds to get out the door, the standard time is 90 seconds. And thank you for bringing the USA into this thread, i don't see how it relates to anything, but again, thank you.
nope, the main building is 110 m long, plus sports ground and parking lots. But it isn't that big for no reason, we have 3 Engines, 3 Aerials (each 100ft), 2 Tankers, 1 Heavy Rescue, 1 Technical Rescue, 1 Water/Heights Rescue, 1 Command, 6 Chief cars, 3 vans, 3 trucks and 3 pod carriers with 15 different containers, 1 forklift and 2 boats
as much as I understand your argumentation: our station's area is 180 m long and 90 m wide, with buildings on 4 sides of the huge backyard, the main building with several floors, and we still leave the station within 60 to 90 seconds...
@@aussiefirie No, they didn’t. I watched, carefully. The video starts AFTER the call came in and has multiple cuts in it before the first unit departs. It took well over that.
I live near that fire station and what I've notice is that the 1st truck will always leave with-in the minute mark and the rest will leave like you see here, most of the call outs they get would be false alarms being right in the cbd... so not really a big deal to have the other trucks there, they have the rumbler sirens now so it's fucked at 3am
ill really did the last ruck that left, it still has the old nsw brigade livery as well as those spinning halogen beacons on top, those trucks look so good!!
The Flyer responded to 18 calls that night.It is Sydneys busiest fire station the flyer responded to over 7500 calls in 2012.Its not the busiest working statiion as in the amount of workers(75% of the calls are for automatic alarms)but both the flyer and runner respond more times than any other truck in the city.
Their is no difference, it's just a callsign. It's coined from the "flying squad", who manned the 1st pump who had to be out the door in less then 30 seconds from a call coming in, hence the name flyer, and the 2nd pump which ran all over sydney supporting other stations, hence the name runner.
The first time I watched this, I too thought it was a slow respnse. BUT, after reading some comments, re-watching, and keeping an eye on the clock, I realized No, they made GOOD TIME-OUT! I, sitting in my comfy chair, had a distorted perception. I Have responded-from a dead sleep [at HOME!] driven to the fire house, driven to the call, returned, and THEN gone to work ! But the surprising thing is Later, finding out 'Dispatch' to 'On-Scene' was 2.5 minutes! So, time perception vs. reality ... NO JUDGEMENT... NO CRITICISMS!! Good Job Guys !!!!!
Except watch again, but this time watch the speed at which the guys put on their gear and depart. You don’t know exactly when they got the call from the video. It starts after the call came in. It is also edited. You can easily see that. Don’t guess. Look at their individual speeds, how their gear is set up, especially for the first crew. They could cut their time in half, if they bothered to.
Here in Australia, we have most commonly bush fires, house fires, gas fires and rescue ladders are not used as much. When there is a bush fire and they can't control it, they get helicopters and planes filled with water and spray it across a huge mass of land.
They differ in name only. City of Sydney station is the only station to use the terms Flyer and Runner as keeping with their tradition/history. Flyer is simply the first out the door to a call. The original names of "Headquarters Running Motor and Flying Motor" are around 100 years old.
Also for everyone claiming "we could have emptied that station in 3 minutes" and "slow response!", at the start of the video, only 1 truck was paged (that 1 light on the screen at the start of the vid) and as they where turning out, the job escalated, and more appliances where called for as the alarm levels rose. Notice as the runners crew was gearing up and turning out, the A on the screen lit up? thats for the aerial.
Another excellent video - thanks! The red & blue lights are very effective, especially in these night time shots. In first clip, glad I wasn't needing rescued that night - 3mins to get the first unit on the road!!?
I love the trucks there! I visited Sydney recently and saw one of them responding. I personally don't like their choice of sirens. Then again I don't really hear them often since I live in the U.S.A. With that aside I love the trucks and the way they have the checker board paint job around the truck. That is similar to our chevrons here. I also love the fact that they use both red and blue lights on their rigs. Usually in the U.S. I only see red on fire trucks, so it was nice to see red and blue. Great catch and thanks for sharing!
whoa watch out we have a bad ass over here, i got acouple family friends that are based on flyer and he was the one that told me that station does over 5000 calls a year
A few comments on the sirens below. To clarify I remember a low level female politician - her name escapes me- complained about fire truck sirens as she lived in an inner city apartment. Fire trucks always respond code red with siren on all the way. I think after her fuss about those noisy sirens the fire siren in NSW at least was toned down a little. I personally agree the Federal sirens used on US trucks identifies a fire truck very clearly and NSW Fire should take it up.
There's a saying in America and it goes: it's not who you know it's who you blow!!! Cause we even have that rule in the area I worked in before I transferred to another area. We couldn't use the siren when leaving from the station
Federal Q's are very effective here in the U.S. and really clear a path but in the last 10 yrs or so Ambulances have put an imitation electronic imposter Fed Q on...Absolute sacrilege...lol
Sirens should be used when situations need them. On an empty street, in the middle of the night, the only things sirens do is wake up the neighbours and stroke the fire fighters’ egos.
Can you tell my, what camera do you use? What stabilizer system do you have? It is only IS in your camera, or something different? Movies from this camera look very smooth ;)
Could somebody explain the difference between a "runner pump" and a "flyer pump" to me? Many thanks in advance! Kind regards, David (a firefighter from Belgium)
Flyer and Runner are call signs from back when the fire brigade started. The"Flyer" was named as it had to be out the door in under a minute of receiving a call and looked like it was flying out the door, with the rew sleeping nearby in a room on the ground floor. The "Runner" was named as it had to be out the door in under 2 minutes ofreceiving a call and always looked like it was running after the Flyer.
@ImageIsBaws what do you mean hate? They all do the same job. Doesn't matter about the shape/sound of the truck or gear it does the same job. The Fire brigades in Sydney have some of the best technology in the world, if not the best. Doesn't matter anyway they still save life's
USA hate? I absolutely love the USA, i never said anything against the Fire departments of the US. I'm just trying to comment on most commenters saying how their country trucks are bigger in size and sound better. they all do the same job. i merely commented on one person. But you scroll through other videos of the Aussie brigades or other countries brigades there is a countless list of people judging the trucks by its looks.
What is that clear beacon on the fire truck that is right in between the red and blue lights? What does that do? I live in Campbelltown and to go to high school, the passes by the fire station and I keep seeing this clear rotating beacon together with the modern Lightbars. I will try to make a little example here the lights on top of the cab go in this order [lightbar] (Clear beacon) [Lightbar] i was just wondering if that beacon is for smoke or Bushfire's or to act as a traffic clearing light that isolates left and right but doesn't do full rotation. Can someone please answer my question of the perpose of the clear beacon on fire trucks in NSW. Thank you and please reply so I can get this in my email :)
I think the clear beacon is not a beacon but a remote operated spot light; not sure tho. I've seen them up close often, but will look more closely next time. I understand that the green beacon on some vehicles is related to BA usage. If the clear is a 'traffic clearing' beacon, I've not seen it used that way in any of my trips to Sydney.
+Clive Walters The clear light is a remote controlled spot light, green lights are used to symbolise a command post, usually found on incident command vehicles.
Flyer is the name given to the first appliance years ago as it had to be out the door in a minute of receiving a call. The name was given as it had to "fly" out the door. Runner is given to the second appliance as it had to be out the door in 2 minutes. The name was given as it looked like it was "running" after the Flyer

The average FDNY station averages over 10000 callouts a year, with 2013 having been the busiest year with over 12000 on average.

i have been in that station before and did u know that ladder is the biggest ladder in australia -------------did u film this
different types of rescue and operations, and its the name of the crew
