A younger guy from the Wooster area trims for AEP and other local electric co-ops. He started doing it fresh outta the military, he makes well over a 100k from what Im told.
Oh man! You know that pilot has to have his hand on the emergency release to that thing every second!
yeah this one's been posted a few times - I kind of wondered how it could be economical but then again they move Christmas trees with helicopters
I forget how much they told me it cost if your did have to emergency release it......but it was something crazy. That is one dangerous job!
I saw one on Monday up around the New Philly area........pretty neat watching them work up a right of way.
