As we landed at Philadelphia April 21, 2006 at about 0900 hrs,
a full compliment of ARFF apparatus was responding down the runway for some type of alert
for an aircraft landing AFTER ours (fortunately).

It was interesting to observe the apparatus responding to their positions along the runway.

The aircraft landing was apparently uneventful and apparatus cleared soon after.
