So basically it’s an aerialscope?

[@sparkthefirebuff4]

Yeah, but pierce

[@justanotheraviator2357]

More comparable to a Sutphen SPH100

[@DByers-ci5kr]

So you guys didn't actually listen to what was said. Definitely not a Baker or Sutphen.

FDNY likes calling them tower truck but aerialscope is a lot better and more descriptive

[@tsaffran]

except 5 feet longer yes size matters
