FDNY 10-75

Has this been delivered?

The last few demo/test cars have been black, the chargers on the road and the impala were all black. So I believe these are just test cars for now.

I will post more photos as soon as a few of them are lettered...

I will be there, who else is going?

Interesting, we usually get an escort from DPW or request them to respond to the scene.

If I can get the time off...

Few more RAC interior shots:

Not the greatest, but gives you an idea with the RAC, pull out tray with coolers and the pop up tent, mist fans, chairs, etc

Inside MERV 1:

Watervliet, the West Troy Fire Department... There was also talk of Albany providing fire protection to the Village of Menands. Honestly, they should get rid of the volunteer (Menands, Maplewood, Schuyler Heights) departments along the river and merge them into one reasonable sized paid department (Cohoes, Watervliet & Green Island). The number of volunteers is dwindling in Maplewood and Menands and they often can't get off the floor. Also, back on topic, the brothers did a great job last night!

Having worked there, I got some great experience but wouldn't tell other people to work there. The pay for EMTs sucks and so does the management. There a TON of non emergency transports, but they do all the 911 transports at a BLS level in the City of Albany. PM me if you want more info...

Any Nikon SLR. The D7000 is a great buy right now.

Grab and go, filter breathe if possible.

A total of 6 firefighters were injured. All will be ok, and are EXTREMELY lucky to have made it out. Members arrived to find the entire top floor (illegal finished attic w/ multiple broken up apts) going, made an aggressive push only to be pulled out and then sent back in after a switching to a defensive attack. I won't say anything about the rest of the operation or the mayday... Also note, AFD has 8 engines, not 7.

TAC makes some great stuff!

These would be useful for forcible entry in the dark/smoke.

It will be a new TSU.

Gross mismangement, let someone else do it.

The 1010 and the 1044 are made from completely different materials. Stick with a Ben 2 or an N5A and you wont be disappointed.

Delmar EMS (just South of Albany) is using the iPad with EMS Charts for their EPCRs.

Nice Ride!

They have always been able to stop vehicles for misdemeanor offences and above in unmarked vehicles. The current superintendent feels that unmarked vehicles are needed to enforce aggressive drivers and drivers who text and use cell phones. A number of black, blue and silver Chevy Tahoes, Dodge Chargers and a few other vehicles have been distributed to certain zones (which do primarily interstate highway patrol) statewide. You should see more and more of this in the future.

Do FDNY paramedics staff that or does the USSS pick it up and staff it? Does Ambulance 001 join the rest of the fleet after it has served the POTUS for a few years or does it go to auction? What does the POTUS' bus have that the others dont?

That's because it is. 1982 Hahn - HCP15 - 1500/500 #HCP15-110
