skid shoe
"Australians 412 has been back on Horn Island for over a week now and better than new - literally. The machine is flying better than it ever has."
S/S you sound as if you are in A/H management???????????
Well that wouldnt surprise me..... obviously the Redcliffe boys know what they are doing and A/Hs boys dont
Is that what you are saying skid shoe?
skid shoe you seem to be in the real know about this machine. Tell us what was this I heard ( from a reliable source in redcliff) about CORROSION in the left MAIN BEAM?? Doesnt sound good?
Was there any damage found to the head? Cracks etc??
At the last major they did at Horn, one of the I know everything engineers up there drop it on the concrete floor from a height of 60 cm ( enough to chip concrete away)
Pruners who are still at YHID will remember that incident.
Glad its up and going again..
