I have to Question the reluctance of Not sending Manhattan units into Queens. Its 2.45 A.M. and from what I can see more Bronx Units were assigned than Manhattan. Why not take that Very short ride over the Queensboro.

Noticed two very interesting things in your video. #1 was changing out the batteries on the drone on the fireground during ops. #2 was the nozzle sweeping back and forth without human intervention at the loading dock. Just what is that applicaton, never seen anything like that. Excellent video by the way.

Are you talking on relocates or into the fire?

Before they stopped going to only 5th Alarms

B-8 went in on the 4th

E-39 on the 6th with L-16 & L-2

Now its basically usually relocators.

The “nozzle” referred to above is the Blitzfire, a 500 gpm, high or low flow, foam or water monitor with stacked smooth bore tips and fog capability. It may be set for automatic 20, 30, or 40-degree horizontal sweeps. It has a vertical stream of 10 to 86 degrees above horizontal. The monitor is carried by the Foam Tankers, HazTech Engines, Satellites, and HazMat 1.

Each Drone is different as there is around 30 or so of them. From 25mins to 55 min fly time depending. To answer #2 that’s the Blitz Fire I believe only satellites have them and the super pumper will have also
