    Why does a watch manager have their own car? Aren't they usually OIC on the primary pump?

      Great question! Since around 2018 I believe we rode the Watch Managers separate to the pumps due to the fact we can save money in the long run! As well as this the benefits of them is they can carry equipment which the pump may not have space to carry or some equipment that may be specialised to the station (like foam for Hunslet) Primarily they can be sent separate to a pump to incidents which control are unsure on from callers details, then a decision can be made as to if a pump needs to attend or not. Unsafe structures are massive for these

      @@EastSussex999basically yeah! It’s a strange one but the benefits is they can carry extra equipment, so stations like Cleckheaton whose technical rescue can carry other equipment for animals trapped between walls which aren’t specifically on the TRU will have to be switched over when the job comes in. So the CLM at Cleckheaton can take some of this equipment

    Sorry but which absolute genius decided to have only a single retained appliance at the station closest to an international airport?

    • @yorkshire9998
      @yorkshire9998  2 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Rawdon's a day crewed station, so there is crews there 7 days a week from 8AM-5PM, past them hours they respond from home so exactly like a retained station! We also have Cookridge too which go to the airport and are about the same distance to the airport than Rawdon!

    • @yorkshire9998
      @yorkshire9998  2 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Usually what you find is 90% of the jobs that come in at the airport are within the 8am-5pm hours, I've seen maybe 3 since I started with planespotting 6 years ago which were outside of these hours!
