Better get those CFD apparatus pics while you can, with this new Commish stepping in there's talks about closing 5-6 houses and reducing the manpower on remaining companies.



There is also a debate on what's gonna happen when the Snorkel Squads need replacing, since ALF holds the contract but refuses to build new Snorkels.

Shortly after the PFD signed the contract with KME for the snozzles, (and when I say shortly, I'm talking a week or two) ALF announced that they would now sell the Snorkel line of products to any chassis mfr.

I spoke yesterday via e-mail with the Ephrata, PA American LaFrance plant and they said they would still build the 54' articulating boom Squrt to order if requested.

My immediate first thought on this rig was that it looks like the Charlie Brown Christmas Tree of Fire Engines. Poor thing.

Per Philadelphia Thread.





The real question is will they actually build a 55 foot Snorkel and not just a Telesquirt, because that's what we having been using in Chicago for our Snorkel Squads for many years. We are happy with the 55 foot Snorkels and get alot of use from them.

Why not just send the snorkels out one at a time and refurbish the actual snorkel boom and remount them on new apparatus?
