On days like today, when multiple fires are burning in remote areas or hard-to-access terrain, firefighting aircraft really show their strength. The RFS Chinook helicopter, seen here working on a new ignition east of the Golden Highway at Gungal, alone dropped more than 220,000 litres of water on fires today. Early intervention from fast-moving aircraft like this supports our firefighters on the ground, who go on to completely extinguish each blaze. | NSW Rural Fire Service

The #RFS Chinook helicopter has undergone a massive makeover, with aviation specialists working for eight months to install a large belly tank. Now fully operational, the Chinook's capacity has increased to 11,000 litres, the largest water payload of any firefighting helicopter in Australia. With the upgrade, our helicopter can fill faster, deploy more effectively, and conduct night-time operations when fire intensity is typically lower. The Chinook has been instrumental in firefighting efforts
