Dear FR1 Member

Thankfully, aerial incidents are rare. But in this month's eNews, we offer some tips on how to reduce that risk even more. And we sit down with ambulance experts to talk about what's new on the market and buying tips.

Also be sure to check out the dramatic video of Ariz. firefighters using an aerial to rescue people stranded by a flood.
