Here’s a pretty easy drill for ladder truck placement training. Phil Burden, JD Vasbinder, and Tom Wilcox have been doing this for years.
Pick a day, but Sunday’s work best when traffic is light. Get your crew out of the recliners and take your truck out for a ride. Pick a building, discus placement, set it up, recognize hazards, check out the roof, and see where and what you can reach.
Make it a Sunday morning habit and you will soon have greater efficiency and knowledge on your district from above.
