Notes:

Rear Port side view of Canadian Registered Coulson Aircrane Sikorsky S-61N C-FIRX Cn 61-257 (Code 347), hovering at Latrobe Valley Airport (YLTV) on 07Mar2014. The helo was preparing to fight an open-cut coal mine fire at nearby Morwell, using the large Bambi bucket visible at left. The countryside at rear is full of smoke, which forced evacuation of houses near the fire.
