    The arterial apparatus doesn't necessarily have to be there to vent, it gives the firefighters an access or egress alternative as well.

    Why a large ladder truck in a 3 floor house fire? And there's barely any visible fire.

      they're really not that dangerous when operated safely and taken care of. i do inspections on these units all around the east coast of the us. i can assure you fire apparatuses aren't dangerous when used properly.

    You couldn't even see flame or smoke damage at the windows but they still needed to go on the roof to vent?

      @@Rescue-mt7fl Let me see. How can I best express my opinion of your comment. How about, "That's ridiculous."? But you keep believing that if it works for you. Standing on the roof of a Burning Building to figure out what is going on inside. Like looking at the windows wouldn't give you a better clue. That was one of the most imaginative bullshit excuses I've heard about why it's a good idea to walk around doing NOTHING constructive while the building burns under you.

      @@Rescue-mt7fl "You obviously have no knowledge of Fire behavior or building construction." Let me see! I was a Third Generation REAL Firefighter who actually grew up in a fire house and spent 40 years in all types of construction, mostly as a leader. I wouldn't waste money on lottery tickets if I were you. You are a lousy guesser.
      According to you, if heat and smoke "Rise", it will accumulate at the roof. If, as you say, there is heat escaping "from plumbing vents, roof vents and scuttle hatches", is the fire in the basement, first, second or third floor? Which room on those levels? Your comment goes way beyond ignorant! You are a "Two Dimensional Reactor." "Heat rises so let's go look for the fire location by looking for it on the roof." Brilliant!

      Actually the linkage for the Raise/Lower control valve had been damaged previously, leading the operator to accidentally put the valve in the wrong position which set the ladder down onto the roof. There was no collapse at all, the department just had failed to properly inspect or repair the equipment from the previous damage.

      @@navblue20 yeah well i can tell you from personal experience (im an inspector from aerial testing company) alot of American apparatus companies have become pretty poor in manufacturing quality.
