Asia 55, brush engine 57, Whitesbridge, cross of Madera, reported motor vehicle accident, Whitesbridge Avenue and Madera, timeout, 1630.
00:30
AirTAC, Grand I-C, go for Grand AirTac.
00:34
Yeah,
00:35
it might take a little longer that Creek's flown. A lot of water is deep, we're looking for an access point to cross it.
00:41
That copy, I think I have eyes on you right there on the water's edge.
00:46
Copy, yeah, I'll let's know once we get a cross and then that'll make it easy.
00:55
Found a way to get across, I'll start hiking up that way now.
00:59
Grand Airfare coffee.
01:01
Yeah,
01:04
we came down for a low-level recon, I see.
01:06
And yeah, it looks maybe about a three-by-three just at the base of that snag.
01:13
Perfect, yeah, for now I have my engine crew, four of us, plus a 4252 with three bodies hiking in.
01:20
I copy. When helicopter 527 shows up, I want to make you the ground contact to work that bucket in there.
01:28
Yeah, copy that. I'll be there by the time that shows up to you in my training.
01:32
Copy.
01:36
AirTech, the time 42.
01:38
Battalion 42, go for Grand AirTech.
01:40
Hey,
01:42
what's your thoughts,
01:43
once you're released from this incident,
01:46
just doing a recon of the front country,
01:49
SRA, FRA area.
01:51
No need to go in the wilderness, but you know, just that front country area, just take some strikes in this area.
01:57
Yeah, we can do that. My plan, if you guys concur, is 1527 gets that scene and offload the crew.
02:04
I'm going to turn the airspace over to them and then we can absolutely make something of that on our way back to Fresno.
02:09
Take a little detour back and see if we find anything.
02:12
Yeah, that'd be great. Rather catch them at this small size before it's drying out.
02:18
Yeah, but it looks like a pretty good sale came through this way, just looking at all the hail coming from the fire up toward Meadow Lake. No hail visible anywhere else, but I'm thinking this was the center of the cell when it came over.
02:33
And this was just for Intel. I don't see any buildup within 20, 25 miles, just real high clouds.
02:40
but no cells active in the area.
02:43
Okay, I appreciate.
02:45
Okay,
02:47
I appreciate it.
02:52
President, No, 155.
02:55
155 for us all, go ahead.
02:57
Everyone's sitting in the area.
02:59
Did you have a better location for us?
03:05
Negative 4101s in the area with nothing showing.
03:09
Original report,
03:10

03:11
