    DC FD creating Rowhouse Firefighting training video

    Didn't United Labs along with the FDNY do some kind of testing on Governors Island about 7 or 8 years ago? I remember something about them setting fires in different types of buildings with different windows and other things to test fire spread (Its not a good recollection).

    NYC fire protection

    One thing to remember in this whole discussion, yes probably thousands of people have moved out of the city in resent years. Yes some people have moved into those houses and apartments. Just remember that during the day millions of people come into the whole city to work and visit, sometimes...

    6/18/22 Manhattan 2nd Alarm Box 869

I know there's alota variables...

    6/18/22 Manhattan 2nd Alarm Box 869

    My comment was more towards the distance from 41 to 21 quarters is about 15 miles and probably about a 45 minute ride. Taking a Truck out of an area that is a bit thin on Trucks to start with for a long period, they run into 61, 97 and 72 all single Engines and can run long runs up to 38/51...

    New Tillers

    I agree with tom113 as far as pre 70's but remember that the RM's are shorter then the TDA's and over the years renovations happened like weight rooms, expand kitchens, bathrooms, etc which might exclude those houses.

    What does a typical FDNY Battalion Staff consist of

    On multiple alarms when a chief goes into the building usually his aide goes with him. At that point the chief would be on a tactical channel and the aide would be on a command channel with their portables. There are other reasons but none are actually doing fire duty like stretching hose or...

    FDNY and NYC Firehouses and Fire Companies - 2nd Section

    Appointment of Chief of Department

    And I believe the comp time is hour for hour not time and a half. I know some guys said they would take a pay cut being promoted from Capt to BC because of the lack of OT pay

    5/2/22 Brooklyn 3rd Alarm Box 2677

    I agree with what is being said about how dangerous E bikes and scooters are when recharging, and in my opinion they should not be allowed into structures, but the simple fact is the powers to be in City Hall, and around the country, will probably not even consider any type of ban due to the...
