Hi David these are called TAP's in Queensland, Telescopic Aerial Pumpers

Added by Matt on 30 July 2012.

In the USA, these would be known generally as a "telesquirt". Also as a quint, since it has a pump, hose, water tank, ladders, and the telescopic master stream.

There are not many places to see a Freightliner and a Scania sharing quarters at the same fire station.

Australian (and New Zealand) fire services do seem to try to adopt the best practices of both the UK and the US, but usually on Swedish or Japanese chassis...
