Can hear them as I type this. Yes, they do a stirling job. Hubby has been fighting the bushfires up this way for the last week or so. I rang him about midnight last night, just to check on him and he said that as the pilots can't operate after dark they came and helped the guys on the ground last night. Was hugely impressed. They were on the job at daylight this morning. Fires in inaccessible national parks and bush are hard to get on top of and the helicopters are the "ducks nuts" in these situations. We are all tired.
