What's New
September 4, 2008

So far it's been a busy summer so here we go!
Another good suggestion that I have implemented is putting the thumbnail photos on the apparatus pages in order by F number.  So far I have done this on the TeleSqurts page since its just about 100% complete.  I'll implement this slowly in the other sections as well.  Enjoy this months update!

Events section updated

Los Angeles County Fire Department page updated

Crown pumper and Unique Crown pages updated

After having a guilt-trip laid on me about a week ago for not having kept things current, I've taken the time to get the Index section current.  It really is a time consuming process but it's done.  Please keep photos and information coming and I should have a photo update done in another week or so.

Well, I've been dragging another update on long enough.  I've decided to go ahead and post it now instead of making everyone continute to wait.  As I write this, I haven't completely finished all the pages involved but it should be complete within another week or so.  I continue to work on a Technical Data section and one of these days I'll have that ready as well.
All of this could not be accomplished without the help of the many fine people that contact me with photos and information.  I spend more and more time fielding email messages from viewers of this site and that is a great thing.  Please keep them coming!

This is the 3rd update for the year and I hope that it won't be the last.  The amount of free time I have will be the deciding factor.  I have used many photos in this update from individuals like you that have shared thier photos with me.  I always welcome new photos from fans of this website and will be happy to share them here.
