The agencies must be laughing again... as they were in the early 2000’s when operators were buying surplus 204’s 205’s... a Mudgee operator did very well at this occasion with no competition.
One had to of course keep up with the “Jones’s” and thus the Blackhawk is the flavour of the year.
Some early backyard players have been spat out down the south coast trying to operate a hawk way out of their depth but I’m sure there will be a few players that can and hopefully will train and keep the dollars upto to meet the standard and this will unfortunately for Aus be overseas companies with big budgets playing here for summer .

Any helicopter is if the cockpit has been missed and meets the equipment requirement, the company has an AOC allowing it with trained crew etc.
Just look at Kestrel Aviation that used B412’s on fires with NVG. They have approval for initial attack at night, and hover fill from unsurveyed Water sources.
