Thats all I have from this show. The only 2 rigs I missed were 2 Ferrara's. There was also the usual assortment of demo's from Crimson, E\-One and Pierce. Most of the demo's were used in classes during the week.

1996 Pierce Arrow #E9202

2000/350/174' Bronto Skylift



Photo taken by me in 1997.



At that time this was the tallest aerial in North America. It had so many safety features on it that the aerial was unuseable if the winds were greater than 15 mph.

Note the triple rear axles!



This rig has been sold to the ski resort community of Jay, Vermont.

I have no answer for you on this one.



Perhaps it was a demo and the department was in need of something immediately.



Perhaps Mr. Hansen will shine some light on this.
