    Not my photo. Saw this in a Facebook group. I thought the LAX engine was canceled?

    Construction 4 responds with the Dozer Team, i believe it's manned by two and carries equipment for the dozer.

    Engine 42 is getting a "new" rig. It's E95's old rig, a 2010 KME. The Seagrave will become a reserve.

    I'm not sure the larger Piece double axel USAR would fit in Station 27 due to the length, I did hear LAFD is in the process of looking to replace the crash trucks at LAX.

    Hello, it's been a while since I've been on this site. It looks vastly different. My old handle on EMT Bravo was LAFD Engineer.  I got an email through my flickr page from one of you regarding the Super Station as I am assigned to FS51. All I can tell you at this moment Is the Super Station is only in preliminary stages. There are many configurations being explored due to the long range plans of the airport. I can't get into detail which is which but stuff is in planning stages only. It's kind of an exiting time for all as we are seeing the changes around us. I've there since 2007 and I can't count the changes, too many.  What I can tell you is six new ARFF rigs from Rosenbauer have been ordered and are on their way. First four by November, and the last two by Feb 2016.  All the ARFF rigs at 80's being replaced, one in reserve, and one slated to go to 51's staffed by one engineer and one firefighter. The 51's ARFF rig is tentative at this moment. LAWA owns the ARFF apparatus not the LAFD so the fate of the E-Ones is unclear. The Oshkosh is slated to go to Van Nuys Airport.

    My apologies, but my suggestion still stands as to your writing the next permanent Chief as to your concerns about the lack of Towers/Platforms etc.

    tillers are the way to go in los angeles , no question about that, in most big cities you will see tillers, granted there are a few towers and platforms here and there but  tillers are proven to be effective  and useful in most places. I have family on the job in philly and they have a couple snorkels and platforms, but ask any of the guys and they will take a tiller hands down over a platform or tower

    Firepost,
    Unless I'm not reading it correctly, FF Taylor fell through the roof, and not off the ladder due to a ladder pipe malfunction. The site is run by a LAFD member and not a buff. If you are so "concerned" about the lack of Snorkles, Towers etc, write the new chief when they are appointed and get the official answer to your concerns.

    As a side note, the arsonist was up for parole earlier this year, and again was denied
    Respectfully submitted,

    Station 74 in Tujunga has both a newer Ford E350 and a Dodge Rescue. RA 74 has the dodge and 874 has the Ford.

    I'm familiar with the normal LA County Field Battalion Chief's 1-22 but there's a few other BC suburban's I've seen that have me wondering,
     
    I know Battalion's 44 & 45 supervise the camps and heavy equipment
     
    What about Battalion 42 and 64 what are they in charge of?.

    About 10-15 years ago, I had passed by the LAFD Shops, and found the shop personnel and Brass looking over a Sutphen Midmount Tower, never was put into service.
