Helicopter Roles
   

Control of emergencies, such as fire outbreak, chemical or nuclear incidents. Usually involves collection, transport to remote or difficult to access sites and subsequent deposition of substances to control the incident. Typically this could be water from an underslung load dumped onto a fire, or neutralising or smothering agents to control a chemical spill. Includes cement drops on nuclear incidents.
