Thanks I din't know that and I had a 1971 f-600 dump truck for many years. like I said 68 tru 72. Looks like two grilles over the years both the crome one and the painted one have one vertical bar.

Again, many thanks for the posting of the Wyeth pieces. I even work for the company, but never got over to West Chester to get them. Is the Ford F/Ansul unit still in service ?

Hi Bruce,

Yes, Rouses Point still has it service. There's even been talk about rechassising it.

The truck has actually been used several times.

Saturdays are usually the best day for me, although a Sunday isn't out of the question. Even though I live so close to Plattsburgh I had no idea the airport had the fire dept it does. Do you have pictures of their current fleet? Also I'm guessing they operate on the Clinton County 800mhz system?

Hi Randy,

Yes, I posted all the current airport apparatus, with the exception of their P-18 tanker, a few weeks back.

Look on page 47 of this thread, post # 936-938. And yes, they operate on the county's 800 mhz system.

I'll let you know when a dates been firmed up for the photo tour.

I'll have to get out to St. Albans sometimes soon, it's been quite a few years since I shot your stuff.

Mike

Hi John,

Absolutely. I was just in the process of inviting you.

The date I have choosen is 20 June, with a rain date of 27 June.

I spoke to the airport fire chief today and the new crash truck should be in by then.

Is this date good for everyone?

June 20 is the date of the Hudson Valley Parade in Lake George. If that is when everyone else can make it then I will not go to Lake George and will stay closer to home in Clinton county.
