Spring Loaded Smoke Vent

Designed to release when the fusible link heats up, the hatches will spring open to vent heat and gases. The pull handle will manually activate. Use a pike pole to pull and NEVER lean over the top of the hatches when they are in the closed position.

They typically pay a set fee and reimburse or pay for travel and lodging. The winter school is all lecture and it is usually a pretty goo crowd. There is an expo on Friday and class sessions all day Saturday and the morning of Sunday. It's a good time. Some outside guys they have had include Dave Dodson, John Mittendorf, Forrest Reeder, Bobby Halton, and many more. I think it be worth a submission.

Thanks for the add and let me know if you have more questions. I can also give you the email of the coordinator if your interested.

Take care,

Jason

You should consider submitting one of your classes for the Missouri Fire School. They are always looking for new content. Here is the link to submit: http://www.mufrti.org/conf/fireschool.asp

Take care,

Sorry I missed your show last Friday I was traveling to Boston and got jammed up by American Airlines. I never did make it to Boston after 12 hours of nonsense and had to return home. I sure would like to visit with you on the radio as I find your opinions and thoughts to be extremely provocative and insightful. I apologize again for missing your show and look forward to joining you on your next show.
Your friend Bobby

Welcome to the best of the best.

We have a meeting on Wednesday to discuss schedules and such.

I will let you know more after that, but it looks like I will be moving over here for blog talk as well.

That will give me the total FE package.

Then, I got to break the news to the FirefighterNetcast boys.
