Shoop,



I was a little disappointed, most the stations we visited weren't home or in training! I'm most likely going to make another trip down, soon.

Probably from Pekin, NY outside of Buffalo, believe they had a Sutphen/Snozzle that was recently replaced and wasn't too old, but didn't think it was a 2000, more like 2004 or 2005.

Nice shots of the rigs from the Keys....a rarely seen group of apparatus.





For those interested in Pompano too...looks like at some point they're planning on adding another aerial. One of the aerial's will be headed to the new Station 11 when it is finished being built. The other aerial will head to 61, and the squad will head to 63. They are planning on using an AFG grant for the new tower, and a SAFER grant to staff the new aerial unit with 4.

What is the unit breakdown for each of the Pompano Stations?

[/quote]Why would St 52 have a second rescue called 352 instead of 252? Or is that a typo?

Alex,



L92 scheduled for delivery this thursday afternoon at 92
