The ACTRFS has donated two knapsacks to the Canberra Model Aircraft Club. Because of the club's location in the Jerrabomberra Grasslands on the Monaro Highway, it is beneficial for them to have as much fire supression equipment as possible.
The CMAC has strict policies about when and what aircrafts fly depending on the fire danger days.
