It's always surprising how big these amazing vehicles are when you get up close!
Spend an hour with an experienced instructor and fire fighter learning how to drive the engine safely AND quickly!!
You will manoeuvre either a 13 ton Dennis RS or a Scania 82m Fire appliance around a specially laid out course including top gear main roads, roundabouts, T- junctions, slaloms, garages etc.
To make this experience as realistic as possible, the vehicle will be carrying a full equipment load and 2 tonnes of water.
