Gotta love the way Boston is aggressive with their ladders! Both aerials and ground ladders. Stick it were you can!

Just another fire in Boston! :lol:

Fire? They do that for an AFA!

Seriously though, it shows their aggressive aerial placement and the advantages to the narrow/low profile of E-One's outriggers.

A full NFPA compliment I believe. I'll ask Skip since he's on the job up there.

One thing I like about Boston truck companies, the first truck on scene sets up and raises the aerial ladder so that its ready to be used.

The tower is a Pierce, and working with those outriggers ain't easy. I love the E-ones and any other aerial with scissor jacks, beats the hell outta the H-types which require so much more room to set up.
