I wonder if this short wheelbase 30 meter ladder is actually any more maneuverable than the standard Mercedes Econic with its available rear steering axle? The Benz has a remarkably tight turning circle, and can also creep along diagonally, which this Renault can’t! On the other hand, I believe it is probably quite a lot more expensive than the Renault….

This ladder is way cheaper than MB Econic. And it’s a straight ladder without pivot. The engines at the school are just to practice at the school. Rosenbauer has started to produce L27A-XSC compact TTL's with pivot, just posted one 13.02.25 @ Strasbourg!
