thats one way to get out of a brush fire

also, I've talked to chiefs who work on the island. with the satellite incoming that's another engine they can utilize. for instance on an all hands you get 4 engines, ask for extra engine you have 5, add the satellite you now have 6 engines on the first alarm. helps them have resources...

I believe he has a son in 78 truck. God bless

The satellites have nothing to do with hydrant pressure. The vehicle itself has no pumps. It's a giant hose wagon that can help when there are limited hydrants in the area which is the case in many portions of Staten Island Also, hydrant pressure has nothing to do with volume. I've seen...

in the late 80s early 90s that area had a whole bunch of vacant fires in houses that are now where the wendys shopping center is. now they are developing along amboy there, i think this is the 3rd job on that stretch in the last 2 years

all of these companies were at the earlier all hands Busy 6x

I heard the crane operator was spot on and made a huge difference

All fdny engines are currently high pressure pumpers technically. Most dont have the fittings or red hose for that operation. 3rd stage is a complete different story. Pressure isn't usually the issue here. It's volume of water available. If you are relaying a long way you cant go over...

Y I K E S !!!!!

Surprised to see ladder 81 going to Brooklyn when there wasn't much else going on in the boro at the time

14th and 6th assignment has changed through the years sq18 is very close but then after them depending on traffic 24/5 can shoot up 6th ave and beat 3&12 and E 14 in E5 used to be extra engine there then got moved to 4th due but it can take forever to get across 14st

Tight box for all 3 engines

FSD rigs are usually exchanged when a rig will be out of service for a short time (a day or two) It comes with a packed hosebed and alot of other items regular spares dont carry. Makes it easier than stripping a rig completely for only a short time

nothing like climbing the aerial first due roof with everything, and then 2nd due roof just loads his stuff on the TL and gets brought up there like a gentleman lol

I believe E152 and Foam 152 are on any initial ticket at visy paper. 167 and F167 used to be but they moved their foam to Queens

just keep the fast truck coming in. it cant hurt at the very least when you go under control you have manpower for all that hose.

Relocators...... get some
