At one time, wasn't OCFA a big E-One customer?

Some interesting historical photos. https://flic.kr/s/aHskNUis5v

They look pretty nice. But I though SFFD only had one Rescue company?

Was Rural Metro Fire affected by this merger? Are they going to be rebranded as well?

FDNY just ordered 85 more KME engines as part of an existing contract. Seagrave has been and is still popular in California in the past. You do get what you pay for. Seagrave has been doing fine lately, and is positioned themselves more with the individual customer lately then large contracts.

I truly apologize, but some posts made in the past 24-48 hours got lost in the transition from our old server to our new server due to the IP not resolving as quickly as I expected it too. If you posted something during that time that is now missing, I kindly ask that you repost it and I'm sorry for the inconvenience. Thank you for your support and understanding.

Members, In the next few days, we are planning to update our forums to the latest version of this software. When we come back online, you will notice there will be a temporary skin/look to the forum. Again, it will only be temporary and we'll have a new theme package up and running ASAP. You will also notice a plethora of new features and revised layout of features, many of which will make your use of the forum easier and more customizable. Don't worry, it's not radically different and I expect that many of you will feel right at home. Please use this thread to let me know if you find any bugs or have any questions about the software. Also, say tuned to this thread for the latest information. Thanks for keeping this forum alive and well! Much appreciated! Seth Granville EMAIL: seth@EMTBravo.com

San Francisco has awarded Ferrara a contract for 8 Engines, to be built on the Igniter chasis. http://www.fireapparatusmagazine.com/articles/company-news/2016/09/ferrara-san-francisco-fire-truck-contract.html?cmpid=enl_FAEE_Weekly_2016-09-14&eid=294760027&bid=1528756

Is Braun Northwest/Northstar still the contracted supplier for the LAFD Rescues (ambulances)?

The upgrade has been completed. Hope you guys like it. Seth

The Pierce Arrow XT was designed with LAFD in mind. Basically designed to their spec. The original literature with the prototype was an LAFD spec engine.

Press release:

Anybody out the good at graphic design? Looking for someone (for free) to design a logo for the site, that incorporates what we're about and the area we cover.

I apologize, missed one setting. It's definitely fixed now.

Sorry for the delay in reply. Issue should be fixed, please advise. Looking forward to seeing the pics.

Great to hear about the staffing. Wonder if it funds any new apparatus? http://www.dailynews.com/government-and-politics/20150527/86-billion-los-angeles-budget-adds-270-firefighters-7000-lapd-body-cameras-and-more
