Most manufacturers will quote at least a 365 day build time (time of order to delivery). Some are closer to 14 months. Pierce for example has 3 different build lanes based on the type of rig (8 month/10 month/12 month). I know KME was over 400 days last I heard. Not sure about Ferrara. Ferrara...

Who outfits the pick ups for the city after they are delivered?

FDMV had a failure of L-2's aerial at a fire recently so its OOS. They also ordered a Pierce Ascendant TL demo unit. Not sure if that is to replace the Aerialscope or as a 2nd frontline TL. That will be FDMV's 4th new Pierce this year (they already took delivery of 2 engines and a rescue).

According to Seagrave, the 75' and 95' Aerialscope's have the same turning radius. Does anyone know what the difference in the overall length is?

Is that a Con Ed employee with the tan gear and red helmet in the bucket at 4:19?

Looks like a pretty good bow in the “D” side wall along the 1st floor on Google Street View. Even bent out the down spout. Not to mention a few thousand extra pounds of gym equipment and Im sure a few beari g walls removed to have an open floor plan. I

I meant as in the manufacturer builds both the cab and body ( and aerial for the ladders). If KME builds the cab and Ferrara builds the body its technically not a single source rig even though they're both under the REV umbrella.

Interesting. I thought the FDNY required a single source manufacturer to build their rigs.

I wonder if that spells the end of Ferrara building for the FDNY. The Ultra chassis was Ferrara’s only stainless steel cab. Unless they begin to offer one of their cabs with a stainless option I don’t think they’ll meet the city’s specs.

Does anyone know of an online link to the FDNY's Unit Location Map? The map I'm looking for is the one posted in various FDNY houses and facilities. It includes all of the individual houses as well as being color coded by Division and Battalion. It also lists the locations of specialized units.

I know I might be asking for a lot, but does anyone have an inventory of what is carried on an FDNY ladder, engine, rescue and squad? Thanks in advance!
