First of all: Really Great Job!!! Second: Maybe i'm wrong but looking at various video on Youtube, I saw that the "Rural" Fire Department uses "Small" Ladder like this in the photo (note the single pair of wheels unlike the ladders of the famous FDNY apparatus) http://www.google.it/imgres?newwindow=1&safe=off&sa=X&tbm=isch&tbnid=-opxvtCzpS7_qM:&imgrefurl=http://flameroad.com/Simon_duplex/Simon_Duplex-75-Aerial-Ladder.html&docid=RpvW6YHMGyILnM&imgurl=http://flameroad.com/pics/Simon-Duplex/2b/34/22016_Simon-Duplex-75-Aerial-Ladder_5.jpg&w=1024&h=768&ei=C2TlUc35J4fwOruRgPAH&zoom=1&ved=1t:3588,r:35,s:0,i:196&iact=rc&page=2&tbnh=194&tbnw=245&start=21&ndsp=27&tx=120&ty=92&biw=1280&bih=933 http://www.google.it/imgres?newwindow=1&safe=off&sa=X&tbm=isch&tbnid=Hp6Mq0GckC1ChM:&imgrefurl=http://www.sidney.ca/Municipal_Hall/Departments/Emergency_Services/Fire_Department/Department_Services/Structural.htm&docid=uyjieX3FcCBVtM&imgurl=http://www.sidney.ca/Assets/Fire%252BDepartment/Ladder%252B903.jpg&w=600&h=450&ei=C2TlUc35J4fwOruRgPAH&zoom=1&ved=1t:3588,r:45,s:0,i:226&iact=rc&page=2&tbnh=179&tbnw=250&start=21&ndsp=27&tx=106&ty=100&biw=1280&bih=933 it's an idea for the Ladder (your actually looks more like a European) Good work!!!!!!
