    1/29/2025 Washington DC Plane in the Water

    Something I just read said basically, the plane called and asked for the shorter runway, which was granted. ( This is fairly normal as planes will sometimes ask if they can get a runway closer to their terminal) The helicopter was either taking off or was already airborne, and was told by atc to...

    1/29/2025 Washington DC Plane in the Water

    I went and looked. Apparently after 911 there was no civilian flights, but it was restarted with a lot of restrictions in 05. He may not have known that it restarted, since he works out of Florida if im not mistaken.

    I can see the news not definitively saying xxxx. This early, without official confirmation, it's easy for them to be burned.

    Watching Fox about it. Apparently there's a lot of conflicting info. There saying possibly up to 60 people in the water, Possibly involving a helicopter, Hannity brought up a good point. He said post 911, civilian aircraft are not allowed at Reagan.

    Another advantage of the Blitzfire and its Elkhart equivalent, is they also oscialte. You can set them up in a hallway, big box store, warehouse, haz mat enviroment etc, set it to oscialte, and walk away from it.

    Out of service rigs

    Dont think they have any concerns on spare parts. It's kind of like taking your personal car into the shop. They get to it when they get to it. My old dept had a EOne 100' rearmount. The main hydraulic swivel, that supplies the turntable for the lift and extension cylinders failed. Drove it to...

    Los Angeles Brush Fire 1/7/25

    I remember back in the 80s, when Dinkins got.in office and he closed a bunch of houses. Including E294. They hadn't even taken the engine back to the shops yet, and 7 people were dead within a 2 week time frame from when the doors closed. All within a roughly 5 block circle around the station.

    1/10/25 Bronx 5th Alarm Box 3462

    It's an air ride suspension, and with the suspension bags full, the unit is taller then the bay door. So they have to empty the suspension bags so the unit fits in the building.

    I worked in Fl, and had 2 sets of gear. 1 structural set and a brush set. The brush set is more of a light jacket and pants made out of like nomex or similar. Very similar to what they are wearing in the picture.
