I don't think I would want to climb our aerial because it is really old. I probably will when we get the new one."A Brother Above All Else" ~Glen Schade

I, in my younger days, have climbed aerial's made in the 1930's. No problem with them.Stay Safe and Well Out There....

If that rig, aerial device, is having mechanical problems and it may affect the safe operation of it, then it shouldn't be used.
If there isn't anything wrong with the truck, it can be used as a personnel carrier, but the aerial shouldn't be used, if it's bad or having serious problems.Stay Safe and Well Out There....

We hardly ever use the aerial on this truck due to its age. Only certain people are allowed to even climb it (the smaller guys). But it is rare that we even use the thing. This is the next truck we are replacing, but we are still in the process of getting bids."A Brother Above All Else" ~Glen Schade
