Lots of buffs there, should be plenty of photos.

Incident Alert

First in Shot, show relation to Garner Engine Wapp Station 1

I got some other shots of ladder setting up, I missed how he got it under the wires, nice job on placement and setup.

Dead batteries so missed a bunch of stuff towards the end, one shot I would of liked to got was the Central Hudson lineman climb the pole to disconnect power. The true master was there and I think he took a shot of it.

Last edit to remove dupe attachment.

Valid question. Whats the load capacity for that ladder? Average 4 guys in my dept and you're pushing 1000lbs with their gear.

[SRS131EMTFF 471]

Whats the make of that ladder?

Is it an E-One/LTI, you can see the LTI on the ladder but I am not 100% of the make cab/chassis?

I know others have said it but iam gonna say it again. Nice JOB on positioning that truck! Thats a real truck driver. The car and wires were in the way and that driver was able to judge it just enough to make it work, not just work but yet an ideal placing of that rig. Great scrubb area could make grabs out of windows/.ladder a window and go to the roof. Also good spot for defensive ops. Some truck compinies forgot about the art of proper placing a ladder truck if there is no immediate rescue needed to change your ideal spot. I also saw two ground ladders raised.

Sorry LOL just a pet peeve of mine to have the truck IFO of the building in a good spot, ever since I took a class with a Lt from A truck company in the city I thought I knew about appuratus placement-WRONG- I didnt . Lt. Mike Wilbur offers a class of truck ops/reccomended class!

I did wonder why there was so many FF"s close to eachother on the ladder? Also 1 to 2 max for venting of that roof, my opnion maybe there was a reason for that many upo there. Not knocking you guys just critiquing. Pictures are a great help and tool to us in the fire sevice but without feedback they are almost useless.

Looks like a Simon-Duplex w/LTI aerial

Yes, you are correct, it is a Simon-Duplex with 110' LTI aerial, and the year has escaped my memory, but I believe it is early to mid 90's
