Those helicopter pilots have big brass balls, flying directly over all that heat & smoke in such windy conditions with a massive weight of water slung below. My hat goes off to them. My mother in law's partner has family in the Blue Mountains but the last I heard they are safe and well. Keep yourselves safe... I expect we may see a bit of haze over here in a few days time. It happens occasionally with the really big fires.
