Chopper Squad (AU)
Chopper Squad, an action adventure series centred around a helicopter surf rescue team stationed on the piers of Sydney's northern beaches. The team has to deal with accidents on water and on land especially with the regular bush fires around the city. Many think this is the fore-runner of Baywatch (see link below) due to its high accent on scantily clad ladies on the beaches.
