FTLAUD, you just made my day. I was hoping that someone had some shots of the mid build inspection.

Mid you happen to see DC's Striker anywhere?

Unfortunately it was not me who was at the mid-build inspection, so I am unsure of the status of DC's striker. They're telling us the first week of March for ours. We had been told awhile ago that DC's unit is about a month ahead of ours on the build timeline.

Fantastic, thanks for the update. It will be well broke in by the time I get to shoot it in May.

There was a post on Oshkosh's facebook page today welcoming Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport - Arlington, VA for the final inspection of their new Striker 3000. Sounds like we are getting close to delivery.......

I asked for a shot of the new Foam 301 on the Oshkosh facebook page and they posted one today. Here is a link to a shot of the new Foam 301. http://www.facebook.com/#!/photo.php?fbid=10150089529681586&set=a.378156871585.161182.303490826585&theater

Thanks for the photo. Very interesting that it has the Chevrons on the front. Should make for an interesting photo this spring.

I believe Denvers Strikers were delivered with the chevrons on the front as well.

The two Strikers I've seen (2 and 7) do not have chevrons, don't know if there are more Strikers at DEN


Washington Metro Airports Authority VA - FTLAUD - 02-17-2011

Denver is up to 7 Striker's now. I also know that the new striker delivered to the Broward Sheriff's Office at Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood International Airport has the chevron's on the front, but theirs was done with blue and white.


Washington Metro Airports Authority VA - Guest - 02-17-2011

The Striker at Ft. Lauderdale/Hollywood does not have Chevrons of that extent though. It has a couple some stripes of chevrons, where this unit for National has the entire front panel covered.
