  • What does it take to safely deploy modern fire service ladders? It takes training and practice, which is why Wellesbourne fire crew are refreshing ladders and combination drills this week. Just don't look down!
    Special shout out to our trainee firefighter... we've all done it 🤣

    Hand holds on the strings inside the tower. At least that's what I've been taught down south. Keep up the good work. 👍

    Hello, could you please do some more wellesbourne fire station respond to e.t.c. As I think it is really interesting seeing from a firefighters point of view.

    Slight commentary mistake there, is that not a 13.5m LACON ladder they have just pitched?, good drill though 🙂

      Hi Brian Easson. Close! Warwickshire do carry 13.5 meter ladders on the 'Type B' appliances. However, the ladder on Wellesbourne's appliance is a 10.5 meter one, built by Magirus I believe. Hope that clarifies for you :)

      @@wellesbournefirestation4420 Apologies thank you for the reply, that's a better design of a ladder than the 10.5 I was used to, and much easier and safer to handle and pitch.Just found your U tube site, cracking stay safe all 😀

      @@brianeasson889 hi Brian we still use the ‘traditional’ 10.5 metre ladders where I’m from, these look 100x safer and more manoeuvrable don’t they..!
