E106MKFD

Intresting thanks for the explanation.

Engine 158 looks (looked) like a great truck its to bad to see trucks torn apart when they still have potential for serving. Atleast it will be put to good use as a dump truck.

Interesting, are those three fire districts interested at all with consolidating or was this just a topic paired with the consolidating of the police?

Sorry actually I was away for the long weekend so I don't know whats up with the new ladder.

Both great trucks. It looks like planning and thought went into both rigs. Just wondering does anyone know if or when Ladder 43 will be going into service?

Whats happening to the old Rescue 1? Any plans or is it gonig to sit around for a while?

As many of you guys added the placement of the ladder, the attack, and the amount of water their dummping is important I don't think I saw him wearing a mask which would probably lead to a pretty bad day for the guy in th bucket. I don't fully know ladder companies SOPs but should you have a mask on if you were fighting a blaze like this?

That burns! Wow!

I think its really wrong and its abusing the rights, useses, and privliges of having lights and sirens. The only reason they use lights and sirens is to move people to the side of the road to get places faster. If someone put all these incidents and circumstances together maybe people would see past the accident and would see why there was an accident and how it could be prevented.

There were too many factors involved. He should have had his seatbelt on and they shouldn't have been speeding. They should travel the way all other motorists travel and that should be end of story!

Lights and sirens = emergency!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! A meeting with an idiot and a basketball team over an old incident is no emergency! I agree! I forget when but somebody in government recently crashed in an intersection with lights and sirens. The accident wasn't bad but it was his fault and he was only going to a meeting not a structure fire, bank robbery, or a person having a heart attack! They feel that since their government they should have lights and sirens and everyone should clear a path for them. Not right!

I feel that government leaders shouldn't have lights and sirens just escorts. Who cares if their going to something important or if they are important. It should only be emergency responders with lights and sirens. Does anyone else agree?

My friends talked about it so I tried it out and i've been adicted ever since!

One of the rigs in our station is Engine 106 which is in the Mount Kisco Fire Department.

I was wondering do many fire, ems, and police departments have stickers in their vehicles on putting on your seat belt. I know Con Ed has one in their vehicles that says "Don't be caught dead sitting on your seatbelt." I was also wondering besides it being a law is it mandatory in your department?

Thats too bad but I heard he wasn't wearing a seatbelt!

Thats true they have had a fair amount of training, drills, and real life experiances. Does anyone know if Westchester County Airport has a crash crew and what kind of rigs they have?

Are local fire departments ready if an accident such as an MVA with one of the tankers should occur? Do local departments train or drill on this subject?
