And these answers are totally from memory/guessing, so I don't expect a
prize :)

Do you mean car/truck in minifig scale?  I'd guess 6 studs.

Different number of studs.

The year Aerial Acrobats came out... I remember because I saw the set in

The logo.  (red cross vs. blue snake thing)

I'd guess the fire trucks had them :)  3 maybe?

Launch & Load Seaport?
