I know FDNY pioneered TL ops is 8 working a fire the most at one incident?
yes it does10-87 code no longer exists
10-87 was deleted. 10-86 has 3 sub-codes nowyes it does
I would definitely know if it wasyes it does
Yeah i forgot to update the FAQ section.I would definitely know if it was
The last you heard there was 8 in operation. When the CoD is 10-84 no more reports are necessary. There was a total of 9 TLs in operation. Not aware of a protocol of limiting to only 8 TLs or was never mentioned throughout the yearsI know FDNY pioneered TL ops is 8 working a fire the most at one incident?
not a limit but has there been more in use at 1 incident.The last you heard there was 8 in operation. When the CoD is 10-84 no more reports are necessary. There was a total of 9 TLs in operation. Not aware of a protocol of limiting to only 8 TLs or was never mentioned throughout the years
They know there is no limit on the amount of TLs! They are asking if there has ever in recorded FDNY history been more than that used at one fire or incident (to anyones knowledge - OTJ as a FF, dispatcher, officer, or off the job). I think a simple yes, no, or idk would suffice?The same thing. “The MOST at one incident”…..either way, there are no limitations for TLs ….or Satellites, multiverses, blitzfires, engines, ladders, hand lines, etc. now the size of the water main might limit their use , or “the MOST that can be used”
Wouldnt be surprised if Sept 11 had more in operation following the collapsesI know FDNY pioneered TL ops is 8 working a fire the most at one incident?
Or maybe the greenpoint 10th alarm in 2006Wouldnt be surprised if Sept 11 had more in operation following the collapses

YesThey were suppose to have a drill yesterday.
Just moved it to the site of the job
Just went and looked, The Greenpoint 10th had 8 TLs, 3 Fireboats, 6 Handlines and 4 Multiversals all operating at its peakOr maybe the greenpoint 10th alarm in 2006
I’m a tad confused. This “SP” can”t have lines connected to large mains directly? It needs to be fed from other pumpers? Its predecessor had lines from hydrants directly. Also, what is its pumping capacity rated at? Thanks.View attachment 56084
Super Pumper 1 & SAT 4 operated today… this will now be considered the first fire the super pumper operated at. I will have a video of it in the coming days. SP was supplied by 2 Engines off 2 different mains got around 4,800gpm off the main deck gun. Max on the main deck run is 8k and then plus 2 rear monitors they do 2k each so total max would be 12k… still would need another 2 more engines off other mains or the Pumps and Marine unit to get full pressure but still was going 200 feet across the fire building.
