Your number of years back there was a airplane crash at near the greater Pittsburgh international airport and western Pennsylvania.. the crash was actually in Beaver county book the airport is in Allegheny co. .. she even on the runway end of the county line.. over the years no one asked Beaver county fire departments to participate in any drills at the airport.. and let me know the plane went down in Beaver Co. .. but Allegheny co callef a zula .. which dispatched half the fire departments in Allegheny co.. which is about 150 fire dept ... No one thought about calling up 50 fire department from Beaver county.. + 2 industrial fire brigade that have foam trucks . The problem is that area is very small and it was hard to move with all those fire trucks including aerial s..

As an old, retired Fire Cap'n, it thrills me to see this kind of response between so many different agencies. Mutual Aid agreements are a "must have" for many departments. As far as personnel and apparatus, it's "better to have 'em and not need 'em than need 'em and not have 'em." You can always 10-22 incoming units. However, playing "catch up" can be a b!och. An incident of this size with so many agencies, requires an effective Incident Command Structure and I bet their "ICS" system worked great! Kudos!

Drive as fast as you can to a hydrant or fill point closer to the scene, refill it there, then go the last bit and start fighting the fire. We definately had to do that with Stump Jumpers when going outside the City or District.

This is misinformation. He missed landing at Clearwater Airpark because he didn't see the runway lights and said he was diverting to Albert Whitted Airport. When he was climbing back up, he called out engine trouble, stalled, and went into a steep dive all within a few seconds. The international airport happened to be closer and kind of in the same direction, but it's inconclusive if he tried to get there at the last minute or if he had already lost control when he turned that way. There was definitely no advanced warning to fire. Their first notice was multiple 911 calls reporting a big fire and some saying they saw a plane go down. Some of the ATC channels covered this with the flight path matched to the radio calls.

When they were little, my kids used to cheer for FD as they rolled by with lights and sirens. Now that they are older, they understand that fire trucks and ambulances mean that people are going into harm's way to save others. It's not uncommon for me to hear one of them saying a prayer for the first responders and the people they are helping. We should all say a prayer for our first responders, and while we are at it, thank God for them.
