The main engine and both of the two backup systems on the 35m-long 'aerial' truck all failed at the Kilbirnie fire, forcing operators into a hurried fix.
"The appliance was ... stranded in the middle of the street, taking radiant heat from the fire, and the operators couldn't do a lot with it"
I declare FRASER JACKSON, SHAUN CROWLEY, ANDREW MCPHEE and DAVID MILHAM duly elected to the position of Wellington Local Committee Members.
Due to the recent resignation of the Taupo Local Secretary, nominations are hereby called for this position in accordance with the Rules of the New Zealand Professional Firefighters Union.
