that big photo at top of page - its says 104 on the base of the boom -
thats the 340 foot model - its huge

it could probably get down boylston st and cambridge street and
tremont street and mass ave in boston - but thats about it - probably
could not turn off onto any side streets - maybe could not go over any
bridges

however - there are 2 small models - F90 and F81

F104HLA - this apparently means - fire 104 meter high level aerial

from the photo at top of page - Featuring the world’s highest aerial
platforms, the Bronto Skylift HLA range represents the ultimate in
high-rise rescue and firefighting. More than 200 HLA units have been
delivered around the world to cities like Bangkok, Brasilia, Buenos
Aires, Cairo, Moscow, and Taipei, to name a few.

(it does not say 200 FHLA units have been delivered - it just says -
200 HLA units - so we are not sure if there are 200 fire snorkels that
can reach the 33rd floor or not - but 200 does seem plausible - even
though google AI cannot tell me how many cities in the world have blds
over 300 feet - but it did say that the usa has 50 cities with blds
over 300 feet - so we should have at least 300 of these snorkels in
the usa
