Essex MA Fire purchased the first Compac Demonstrator AND the second Compac Demonstrator. Both of these units were pretty much hand built at Continental's facility.[/quote]
I knew they had the first demostrator as Engine 1, now retired. I thought they said that their second Compac was the LAST one built, giving them bookends for the Compacs.
IMHO, the Compacs were a good idea with a flawed execution. Too bad they didn't last.
