Washington Metro Airports Authority VA

Earlier this week while traveling home from work, I heard Fairfax County, Virginia units operating at a large brush fire in Chantilly. They put in a special call for additional engines, including Dulles Airport's Engine 380 that is stationed on the grounds at Dulles in their newer station by the air museum. At Ashburn, we run with Dulles Airport on the Greenway, a toll road. We typically run with their Pierce Quantum rescue engine (Rescue Engine 324, a 1999 Quantum). Engine 380 rarely makes it off airport property.



I found Engine 380 in staging and was able to get a quick photo.



2004 Pierce Dash 1500/580/40 pump in rear compartment with discharges off of rear. Have not researched the Pierce job number yet....anyone have it quickly?



60 and 70 degrees earlier this week and a large brush fire....now it is raining, sleeting, and snowing...with plenty of auto accidents.



Thanks,
