This Saturday was really busy. There was the search and rescue practical, roof (vertical) ventilation, car fires, hydraulic ventilation, and fire attack.
In this picture if you look close you can see water coming out of the window. This is called hydraulic ventilation. By setting their hose stream t a flow pattern and aiming it at the open window, the water will actually pull the smoke out the window and thus increase visibility in the room. Jeff said the room was probably around 800 degrees with before the ventilation.

Time to prop open the hood to hose down the engine compartment. Dan uses his halogen bar to prop open the hood while Jeff protects him with the water.
