    Kerhonkson-Accord FAS is the only 911 ESA does in Ulster County as primary ALS. They have a sub-station out there, and they rent a garage across from City of Kingston Fire HQ, near The Kingston Hospital, where they do some transports. They originally tried to pick up everything Alamo dropped when they reduced their Ulster Co. Division, K-AFAS were the only ones to follow, everyone else went to Mobile Life exclusively.

    1995 Seagrave Assigned To Station 51 At LAX As An Engine Company For LAX Airport & LAX Structures. Only Lime Green Engine In LAFD Fleet Due To FAA Regulations. Rescue Ambulance 51 Is Also Lime Green

    This along with the fact that every piece of fire apparatus I have ever seen that is stationed at an airport was lime green, with the exception of Stewart Airport, whose last 4 new pieces were red. I thought that maybe the FAA had requirements that all ARFF apparatus had to be the same color, and designated lime green as that color.

    The police in my village enforce it. They have multiple times, it is NYS V&T law.

    § 1217. Following emergency fire vehicles prohibited.

    The driver of any vehicle other than one on official business shall not follow any authorized emergency fire vehicle in the same lane or an adjacent lane to the one being used by such fire vehicle at a distance closer than two hundred feet while such fire vehicle is displaying one or more red or combination red and white lights, or one white light which must be a revolving, rotating, flashing, oscillating or constantly moving light, nor shall such driver drive into or park his or vehicle within the block or where there is no block, within one thousand feet of where such fire vehicle has stopped in answer to a fire alarm.

    I drove 285, we took the jumper to the LZ, then St. Francis. Most of the confusion was because they req'd 3 ambs. for 2 pts. The 1st rig got blocked in on Market St.

    Part of the reason we drove to St. Francis is because was when the pt. was immobilized, it was done in the stokes, when we went to move her we found that she wasn't on a back board, and the stokes wouldn't fit properly in the helo.

    It was a smooth clean operation, went very well given the conditions & pts. location. The only thing i didnt like there is there was no tag or saftey line for the pt., didnt like that all the fireman had to hang over the railing that she just went over to grab the stokes. Other than that little bit of criticism everything went extremely well. Origional plan was to lift her, and swing her over to the front of Wappingers Ladder, the chief stopped re looked over the situation & changed it so they would utilize the porch she came off of, almost strait up from where she was, and not carry her over the water.
