4/10/26 Queens 5th Alarm Box 4553

I think the original Super Pumper could use hydrants because of the huge diesel engine that was more powerful than any engine on a pumper. This one operates off its own power. Not an expert but just a guess.

Super Pumper 1 & SAT 4 operated today… this will now be considered the first fire the super pumper operated at. I will have a video of it in the coming days. SP was supplied by 2 Engines off 2 different mains got around 4,800gpm off the main deck gun. Max on the main deck run is 8k and then plus 2 rear monitors they do 2k each so total max would be 12k… still would need another 2 more engines off other mains or the Pumps and Marine unit to get full pressure but still was going 200 feet across the fire building.

Some people on here are going to be so very excited about this!

The downside is this will perpetuate the posts asking why it isn't called to every single large fire no matter what

About time they used the Super Pumper!
 
Why did they get rid of the upper alarms and only go to the 5th now and then just special companies?
