Fairfax County VA - firemag - 04-08-2014
Lets revive the Fairfax County page with some information. Any banter, corrections, additions, or rumors welcomed. From the information I have gathered for the "One Order" feature in my magazine Fire & EMS Virginia, this is what I believe to be the correct and lastest due dates and assignments. Any help will be appreciated.

Jerry everything appears to be correct after talking with my contact at Apparatus. I was surprised that Tower 408 was going with a RM Aerial Ladder. Guess a newer Tower wont fit. Corrections are welcome if I am wrong gents.

And, if anyone cares to post any photos of older (1960's-1990's) Fairfax County rigs, I wouldn't object
- it's difficult to find good shots of them online.Fairfax County VA - hp1530 - 04-09-2014
Wondering why 407 is getting 2 Impel instead of the Velocity

Corrections are welcome if I am wrong gents.Correct a Pierce RM Tower won't fit and from what I understand a TDA won't either. Then again at 60' long a TDA won't fit and most stations
Fairfax County VA - lawrencewhite111 - 04-09-2014
Guess with 410 and 429 getting TDA their rigs should go and replace Truck 438 and Truck 441 which are the oldest frontline Pierce RMs in the fleet.

All,
I think many of you know I work VERY hard on my publication, and I try VERY hard to make sure anything I publish or put out is correct. Sometimes, however; wires get crossed, or I don't receive the correct information from my "sources". This morning, I received an updated list for Fairfax County. It seems I jumped the gun on two tillers. There is only one. I also had one of the rescues in the wrong station. Also, despite people saying a tower will not fit in FS408, it seems one is on order for that station. Here is the latest I have. I apologize for posting incorret data and sincerely hope no one or no department was offended.

I haven't had a chance to get dress shots of our two new transports but asked one of our members to get some new PR shots for some work we're doing. Once SAF403 has their new car we'll redo them with everything running out of the house but this was quick and simple and includes the two new Fords.

I wonder if the new Freightliner box trucks at FS414 and FS421 replaced these two like the one at FS418 replaced the POD carrier?

Sorry for the short notice but on Thursday, June 19, 2014 at the Fairfax County Police Driving Range (3725 Stonecroft Boulevard, Chantilly) there will be command and communications units from around the Metro DC area for a joint show/exercise. 7:00am - 2:30pm.

So I saw that Atlantic finally posted the drawings of the new TDA’s for Fairfax on their facebook page and they look like they will be nice. I was not a fan of the Velocity cab, but with the current Fairfax color scheme they look pretty sharp. I knew that they were ordering two, but now they have added a third one to the order… does anyone know where they are going and also what their new color and graphic scheme is now going to be? Thanks
