Dave your site is excellent.  Didn't realize so few existed.  I'll see if any of my contacts have any more info on the one's from Michigan.

Due to several problems with the original site and host, The American LaFrance Aero Chief Project has moved.  The new URL is:

www.AeroChief.com
 
Thanks for visiting!

How many ALF Aero Chiefs were built of the three sizes, and how many are still around today?   Aero Chiefs that always caught my attention were the 90ft quints, I'm under the impression that only a handful were built, anyone know how many were built?

This question (and some of your others) could be answered by doing a little research first, on this as well as other sites.  For instance, here is the existing Aero Chief thread:

http://www.youngstownfire.com/forums/index.php/topic,2952.0.html

There is a link in this thread to the Aero Chief site:

http://aerochief.com/

This (Youngstown) site has a "search" tool at the top that is helpful:

http://www.youngstownfire.com/forums/index.php?action=search

Google is a wonderful tool, as well.

I hope this information is helpful.  All it takes is a little thought, time, and effort.  Happy hunting!
