Chair on turntable.

It'd be cool if it had seat belts and you could ride back there! This is the first truck company I've ever seen with a mounted chair on the turntable. Was it put there out of safety concerns or have we just gotten that lazy? Part of Tri-Com's new 100' Rosenbauer ladder truck.

See picture #167 for an example of a Dutch TL with a chair. I think they're actually pretty common on recent European TLs. Rosenbauer is a fairly recent arrival in the US -- maybe they brought that chair idea over with them?

Having a seat is standard practice in Europe, so I imagine its standard with a Rosenbauer product
