Here's a fun group shot for you . . . nine Syracuse Sutphens, taken in about 2005 by our local Sutphen rep. Done very early on a Sunday morning, it took some logistics to get them all together in one spot and some extremely skillful chauffeur work to get them all aligned properly the very first time. The guys said I looked like I was break dancing waving them all into their spots in the line-up (I was SFD Chief of Maintenance at the time). Luckily no serious alarms during the extremely hurried-up photo shoot, but two of them caught full structure assignments on their way back to quarters. It was actually a lot of fun and the crews got a kick out of it. The towers in the shot range from 1987 through 2001 (the two red ones - we were in the process of changing over from our former "Federal Safety Yellow" color). Those two red ones are the only rigs in this photo still on the SFD roster - both as spares.
