This is an interesting series. Thank you.

Thank you for this video. It was very interesting. I saw, numerous times, what appeared to be a lot of smoke coming out of the carriage that trolleys along the horizontal wire. What was the source of the smoke? Rubbing of wire rope against something in the carriage? Or is there an engine in the carriage?

Nice turn, always a challenge landing that long wood 👍

I miss my old boss wilting any chance I can get back under the blades I was a 2 world break crew under the crane

I worked there

Hooked turns at Siller Bros. under one of these back in the mid 80's. We flew a single dougfir weighing 22,000 lbs. If you are close to it and in the wrong position,the down draft from this thing will knock you flat on to the ground. The hook also can build up an electrical charge and cause electric shock unless you alow the hook to touch the ground first. This thing burned 500 gallons of Jet A in about 40 minutes of logging big wood. We sent the heaviest turns at the end of the fuel cycle when the thing weighed less. I think they had a pilot and co-pilot and switched crews every 3 hours because of vibration and overall stess and fatigue. It was an FAA law. One pilot told me with a heavy lift, you could not read the gauges cause of the all the shaking goin on. It had 3 seats and so I asked if I could go up. They said no, against FAA rules. 3rd chair was for an FAA inspector I guess. At the time (mid 80's), the rotor head alone cost $500,000 and the tranny, $1 million. The total cost of the S-64 at that time was $12 million. And they only made them at certain times, such as the Viet Nam war. Our pilots were all Nam vets. They were incredible and great to work with. They really seemed to appreciate us guys on the ground.

We’re they out of skyline at the end and couldn’t get enough slack from the drum?

What a beautiful sight!

Having operated a handful of line shovels, never a snorkel, I can tell you this operator is as good as it gets.
