Chris Antolini These type of aerial ladders are prone to collapsing at certain angles and heights. I am not in the fire service but operate this type of aerial ladder at my job in the lighting and sign industry. My rig has a chart that shows you what angles not to have the ladder extended. You take the risk of collapse and ruining your equipment. Repairs are not cheap.

In his latest blog, Dr. Harry Carter writes: "My preliminary read on the situation is that the local government leaders want the four other fire districts to raise the taxes on our residents to cover the problems in the fifth district. Sorry gang. This does not seem fair to me, as my fire district has lowered our budget by more than $600,000 over the past decade."
Harry Carter talks about the troubles he encountered trying to obtain a FIRE Act grant funding for SCBA due to taxing differences in his fire district.
