I was there and I thought one of the blasts that night started a grass fire some where so they paused the show & i thought i saw the fire truck move in to extinguish it. Do u know if that actually happened?
@what37fisa There was a fire, as can be expected with a blast that big, CFA stopped any fires going through the fence, I was on a "Gator" next to the bang with a slip-on fire pump and helped Rich's guys to pull it under control. In the past we've fired just after the flyover, this year we were 100 metres closer and hard up against the runway. The delay was only because due to the possibillity of debris landing on the runway, we had to wait for the Hornet to land before we started the fireworks.
Spectacular vid. You sure had a great seat!

@Pyrotech56 HaHa better than you think! This show was filmed by my daughter.
I was actually down on the fire ground about 50 metres from the big one! :=)
