The Rheems1 Photo Collection - Rheems1 - 04-07-2010
Those pictures were all taken yesterday, the trip was set up by Tim Wolfe (a huge hand to Tim for getting the AFB set up)... also along was Howard Meile (an honor to get to meet him) and Patrick Shoop Jr. It was a great trip...a great day for shooting, I was very thankful for getting invited along. I am sure Tim will be posting his pictures, I urge everyone to go and look at his pictures as well!!

Dave,
Great photos! I especially like the Magnolia and Dover Air Force Base stuff. I wonder if that P-15 is the same one that they had when I visited the station on a Fire Prevention Week field trip in the 1st grade way back in 1982! Did you get into Dover itself and shoot anything of theirs?
The Rheems1 Photo Collection - Fire28 - 04-08-2010
Jay,
The P-15 was a 1990 model??? from what I could ascertain.
The Rheems1 Photo Collection - Guest - 04-08-2010
Tim,
I very highly doubt that unit was a 1990. Most of the ones I have slides for are from the late 70's and early 80's. Possibly some sort of refurb in 1990?
The Rheems1 Photo Collection - foghog333 - 04-08-2010
The P-15 from Dover AFB should be a 1979 model Oshkosh with USAF property number 79L10.

BOTH THE ENGINE AND TANKER AND ST. THOMAS ARE KME. THE FREIGHTLINER WILL BE THE ONE TO GO. IN NEEDMORE THE THIRD ENGINE IS A SPARTAN GLADIATOR/SMEAL FROM MARYSVILLE, OHIO.

davepa,
Any further specs such as Year, Make, Manufacture (Chassis), GPM, GWT, Foam? on Co. 18's purchases? So they are buying two units? Are the both going to be new or are they used?
I had not heard of either of these being replaced so this is a BIG suprise to me.

This is what I have heard on know:
I heard Fannett Metal bought a New 2010 KME Predator 1250 GPM/1000 GWT Engine, I believe it should be here in the Summer some time
Co. 18 only has One Freightliner Engine which is 18-2. 18-1 is a E\-One they purhcased used from nearby New Franklin Fire Dept.
The new Squad 3 is NOT in service yet, I would guess it should be soon though.
The new Squad 7 is being outfitted at nearby ITE currently, the old Squad 7 is OOS is being stripped of equipment right now and at ITE

ST. THOMAS BOUGHT 2 DEMONSTRATORS. THAT IS HOW THEY ARE GETTING THEM SO QUICKLY. I DON'T KNOW THE SPECS YET.

Any updates on the Tanker for Mont Alto or if "Shamu" has been sold.
The company has been waiting for quit awhile for the new one to come in haven't they.

YES THEY ARE REPLACING THE ENGINE-TANKER ALSO.
AS FOR COUNTRYBOY88'S QUESTION MY DAD WAS AT A RECENT MONT ALTO MEETING AND THEY ANNOUNCED THE TANKER IS ON SCHEDULE. THE LAST I SAW SHAMU WAS AT DAVE'S TRUCK REPAIR. I HAVEN'T HEARD THAT IS WAS SOLD YET. I WOULDN'T BE SUPRISED TO SEE DAVE ADD IT TO HIS COLLECTION.

The new Tanker 5 is going to be a Kenworth T-800 chassis with a Fort Gary (from Canada) body, I am excited to see the new piece whenever it comes... can't imagine what a Fort Gary is going to look like!!! I am hearing 3,500 gallons of water and a 500 gpm transfer pump from someone at work. Shamu continues to sit at Dave's Truck Repair and get older...the company doesn't know what to do with it right now but that they don't want to sink another dime into it.

Thanks davepa. I think I know which demo's you are talking about, if it is the Tanker I think it is than it should be 3000 GWT tanker.
Here are some pictures of the two units that I believe are Co. 18's new units:

I think it is the Tanker & Engine-Rescue that is shown on that page.
