  1. Hey aren't you supposed to be using the water truck to keep the dust down instead of taking these pics? Must be a government job:)

    lol your right !!the sky crane we do not get directly under, we go in, blow down the area, and then we back off. that machine will pick up boards and throw them at you from the rotor wash ,espeacially when it starts biteing air to lift a tower. the 2 real dusty pics are what happens when they get in a hurry and dont let us blow down the sight. i was over 10 miles away . when they called it. and no one was in position, they had to abort that setting cause the dust got real bad. this paticuler copter/pilot is the one that dropped 2 towers. Im in radio contact with the copter but because of the canyon we couldnt hear each other and he went for the set. :undecided: i rolled up just as he tried to set with no water. the other pics is the set with a blow down. :dunno:

    the little yellow copter is the spotter. thats whisper he is an exvietnam copter pilot, the dude is incredible. he picks up linemen and drops them off on top of those towers. and picks them back up. lol whisper somtimes gets board and he will put tha copter 50' in front of you at eye level and fly backwards and watch you drive lol the dudes a nut !! i think he is awsome !!!

  2. looks to be you take alot of pictures, So you probally take lots of breaks with BOOTS on or off! Thats kinda funny cause you run the same way in the dunes, Get half way to the pole and take a break!!!! :poke:

    you have to when you have a funco in the group !!!!!!! :assblast:

  3. Tell them to quit dropping those towers and your sky crane will come back lol.. if i known you were out there i would have hit you up when i was in the valley a couple weeks ago.

    that was the sdg&e copter the emergency release electronics failed and it released the tower. they thought they fixed it and they dropped another one ! fortunately however the flight paths set up keep it away from the public. we have a different sky crane now supposedly there gutting the other one to figure out why.

    Bob, What exactly do you do on that job site when everyone is working? TAKE pictures, Are you the photographer. Next question, The terrian looks pretty ruggid are you barefoot out there? GLAD TO SEE YOUR WORKING AGAIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  6. He calls me and tells me where they see Illegals running around where he is working. I call it in to dispatch and they relay the info to the appropriate station and send out agents. Bob intercepts the agents and points them in the right direction. Pretty soon we will have this down to a science and Bob will be our undercover brother in a water truck.

    On a side note-- Bob was my date last sunday. We went to see Cowboys and Aliens. Pretty good movie.

    all fun and games till he tried to deport me ................

  7. LoL I can picture you driving down the street, with the wind in your hair and playing "Bad to the Bone" Al Bundy style, NICE CAR!

    you mean his black bald dome piece shining in the wind while playing the jeffersons theme :lol: but no one notices cause there staring at the car. she is a beauty

  8. could someone explain to me how dumping oil from a turkey fryer is different than dumping used motor oil in the ground in the area where people camp? Just sayin, that I don't see much difference and don't think LEO's would either.

    ynot , it's VERY different and you know that. cooking oil will not harm plants, animals, or humans. where motor oil and black tanks are. fresh water isnt harmfull either. im sure there is better ways to get rid of cooking oil than burying it im sure. we handled ours differently , but im not gonna get upset about a person buring cooking oil. :dunno:

  9. I am pretty sure he was refering to me getting another car which would take lots o monrey. What tdo you think he meant? LOL

    HEY WO STOP BEFORE THIS TURNS INTO MAN LOVE :lol: THAT QUOTE ABOVE IS EXACTLY WHAT I MEANT :xmas_grin: now you guys ruined by whole star wars come back from the dark side speel :lol: dammit !!!!
