The Northern Arizona Consolidated Fire District #1 recently received a unique Crimson Fire pumper/water tender equipped with a Boomer aerial device. The unit serves as a combination engine company and ladder/service company in a rural area north of Kingman, Ariz.

The new apparatus was built on a Sterling chassis with a Hale 1,500-gpm pump, Pro Poly 3,000-gal water tank and 50-gal Class A foam tank. It is also equipped with a generator and carries other service company items. The 28-ft Boomer aerial device provides both an elevated master stream and area lighting. It was the first production model of the new aerial device.
