Yup sure do. Well now I do the power on pre flight and weapon systems op checks on them before the Navy gets em.
TXRedman I love hat pic of the pumper! We built a 23,000 sq foot home for a guy in Brewster N.Y about 10 years ago and they had a pumper like that that had to gap a 6 car garage, pool and up to the 2nd floor of the house. It was just nutty to watch as the operator had (At the time) a "load compensator) that as the boom took weight the hydrolics would compensate for the droop of the arm. Listening to the concrete flow and the creeking and moaning was a lil bit unnerving.

I put together this project. We designed the steel, did the fabrication and erected the steel and the timber frames. 3 of the cranes in our fleet. The Yellow is a Grove 35 ton, he was flying in the timber and steel purlins (Cat powered). The blue is a 38 ton Manitex boom truck with the man basket on. Has 100' of stick, great rig. Finally is our conventional Link Belt 82 ton. We were flying the timber frames and steel frames with it. Not our largest crane, but it's a sweetheart for erecting steel. Besides, that it has 2 Cummins
