Ladder (Theme 293)


E-One came over to the department to let AFD test this Ariel Ladder Truck. This particular ladder only extend 114 feet where the truck they last looked at extended 135 feet. It's amazing how far off the ground the truck is while the bucket is in operation. It can extend a full 90 degrees out with over 1000 lbs in the bucket. This is one piece of equipment I think every Fire Department needs. There isn't much you can't do with this Ladder. Very impressive to see it in action.
