The Department of Parks and Wildlife fleet of Scouts are used as fire spotter aircraft for forest patrols in the south-west of WA, from bases at Jandakot, Bunbury, Dwellingup and Manjimup. They fly across areas set each day according to the forecast fire weather conditions. They also supervise waterbombing operations in the south-west, relaying information to fire controllers regarding the fire’s behaviour. VH-DXL was built in 2009, and is seen here taxying out for another patrol flight.

This new 2014-build aircraft is unique in the Dunn Aviation fleet in being a side-by-side two-seat AT-504, rather than the usual AT-802 tandem seater or AT-802A single seater. It is reportedly used to train water bomber pilots, and will is unlikely to actually be used to fight fires, even though it has a BOMBER call sign. Fitted with agricultural equipment when this photo was taken.

Inside the Heliwest hangar. N427AL was formerly owned by Southern Aviation Systems LLC, Florida, USA. It was written off on 4 June 2012 near Indiantown, Florida. On a flight from Palm Beach to Ocala, the helicopter had to maneuver to avoid some large Black Vulture birds, but one hit near the main rotor mast area, damaging a pitch change link. The helicopter began shaking violently and became difficult to control, so the pilot executed an emergency landing. Control was lost during the landing and the helicopter spun around, hit the ground and rolled overonto the left side. The main and tail rotor systems and the fuselage sustained substantial damage. Both pitch change rods with bird remains were separated from one of their attach points. Black Vulture DNA identified. The written-off fuselage was then purchased by Heliwest as a source of spare parts for their Bell 427, VH-XSQ.

Built in 2002, ex N908KA. Upgraded in July 2012 by Blackhawk Modifications to Blackhawk XP42A configuration. The PT6A-114A engine is replaced by a more powerful PT6A-42A engine, with new cowlings, dual air intakes, and four-bladed propeller. This provides double the rate of climb while using less fuel, 4% increased takeoff weight, improved takeoff performance and 15% increased cruise speed. The aircraft has also been modified for photo survey, with a fairing under the rear fuselage equipped with air baffles. Taking off from runway 06L.
