    This is a good view of the tank and pump on Plant Protection's Ford F-series vehicle. This seems to be a Food Machinery Corporation (FMC) piston pump. It was made by FMC's Bean Division which also made agricultural spray rigs. The Bean Gun is a signature part of FMC fire equipment from the era.

    These pumps operated at hundreds of pounds per square inch and were known to push things around when aimed at them. They could cause injury if body parts go into the water stream near the nozzle.

    This one doesn't seem to have the top-mounted Nathan P1234A5 horns. It's also not numbered.

    Does anyone know: did the turbines start from DC power (batteries) or from some other source?

    For commercial airliners, my stereotype is that flight crew light-off the APU first, then engine start occurs from APU bleed air. Is that the most common way? Am I way off?
