Can you please tell me a little more about this vehicle ?

Added by Marcel on 01 June 2011.
It's a Bronto F42RL CLP (combined ladder platform), working height 42 metres, on a Scania P340-cab/chassis.
Was delivered to Nuuk Fire Brigade in 2007.

Sorry, but isn't Nuuk the new name for Godthab in Greenland? And Nuuk is only 18, 000 people, so there aren't really any high-rise buildings there!So why is it based in Godthab in Greenland?

Added by Tiger on 03 February 2013.
Godthab is the Danish name for Nuuk, the capital of Greenland. In January 2010 they counted some 15, 469 inhabitants. Indeed, one of the smallest capitals in the world.
Their fire brigade is called "Nuummi Qatserisartut". On their website the brigade confirmed they got that Bronto.
And yes, Nuuk has a few high-rise buildings.

Does the nuuk fire department have paid personnel or are they voluntary?
