Quote:I am curious. I understood Seattle had three 1992 Spartan/LTI 100' (or so) aerials. I thought one was still in service with Ladder 3. Is this not a 1992 vehicle?
You are correct about the photo. Ladder 3 and 8 both had 1992 Spartan LTI rigs until they were upgraded last year with 2007 Spartan Crimson rear mount trucks. The oldest tillered trucks belong to ladders 4 and 10. Both units are assigned 1994 Simon Duplex - LTI 100' TDA's. There could be another 1992 Spartan/LTI rear mount around, possibly used as a reserve ladder, but I'm not aware of one.
