FDNY loaner unit?

[RCL]

Does FDNY loan units as spare to other area dept? There's a video circulating online that shows a FDNY tower that I'm assuming was a spare as New Rochelles tower with captions saying its a loaner.

It's not done on a regular basis, and it is not a rarity but yes, da FDNY does loan rigs to other departments. It's also not the first time NRFD has gotten a loaner.
