Thanks J-P. I was wondering if they had dropped the brand name Metz and were now calling their aerials simply Rosenbauer, as they do here in the US.

Yes correct, the Metz name is not used anymore, only Rosenbauer.

I imagine Carl Metz turning over in his grave, as the saying goes. Conrad Magirus' name still lives on, which I personally think is a good thing!
