Our toddler spotted a brush fire today, which we called in, and within minutes the LAFD Air Operations helicopters from Van Nuys Airport just north of the fire were on scene dumping water even before the fire trucks arrived. Ended up being a 10 acre fire requiring over 100 firefighters to put out.
AgustaWestland AW-139 and Bell 412
Air Operations - the LAFD operates a top-flight Air Operations Unit at Fire Station 114 adjacent to Van Nuys Airport. The flight line typically has seven helicopters ready for deployment as both air ambulance and fire attack resources.
