" It is not ComCens role to be an agent passing messages. Establishing
an early operational communications plan would avoid this."
" Due to the large number of helicopters requested and the Airdesk
being overloaded, the SouthCom call taker spent a lot of time
answering 111 calls and working as the defacto' Airdesk Liaison'.
Fortunately, the call taker had experience working on the Airdesk.
Once the Airdesk was established, a significant amount of liaising and
intelligence was requested through SouthCom. Examples such as
organising someone to uplift retardant, liaising multiple times
between the Command Unit and Airdesk, especially to organise the
no-fly zone requested to CAA, Airdesk wanting messages passed to
command unit etc. "

engines and Dept of Conservation engines
