Congratulations!

Thanks for the compliment, but this IS a Mack site and I have already posted all my Mack fire apparatus on here. I was simply adding a few pics to a few specific threads on a specific chassis. With all the crap going on in the odds and ends section, I'm half tempted to delete ALL my posts and leave!

And look what happened to Hank's!

The majority of Magnum 480 twin agent units went to airports, at least in their first life. The New Haven rig originally protected the Tweed - New Haven Airport. The last rig served TIMCO Industries in Lake City, FL, a company that refurbishes airplanes, located at the Lake City Airport.

The two agents are independent of each other. The operator can choose the premixed foam or the dry chem or use some of both at the same time, all depending on the situation. There is no pump on these rigs, the agents are expelled using compressed nitrogen, sort of like a big fire extinguisher.

Marketed by the Ansul Company, this was their "Magnum 480" model, carrying 300 gallons of premixed water/foam and 1350 pounds of dry chemical agent.

The US Air force designated this style an A/S-32P-18. I have photographed 11 of them, in several paint schemes, at various bases around the US. This one serves a civilian FD after being surplussed. Tanker 2, Pumpkintown, SC 1988 International Paystar/KME 500/2000 6x6

I never noticed this thread until a couple hours ago. I have photographed a handful of Paystars over the years, but all have been in service with fire departments. Tanker 71, Carova Beach, NC 2007 International Paystar/Progress Water Master 650/4000 6x6

I wore "company uniforms" for 31 years and NOBODY, except the pencil-pushing desk jockeys in charge, gave a damn what we looked like, as long as we did our jobs!

There is even more to this story. The shooter is a neighbor and recently had dinner at the victim's house. The victim was on his bike in his own yard with his two sisters and this scumbag walked up to the boy, put the gun to his head and pulled the trigger!

That funding was done through the National Institute of Health. Guess who was the head of NIH at that time.

I could go for several years without buying another thing made in China. How long can they go without enough food?
