Driptray and John Eacott,

Thanks for the heads up. I will investigate this. It is a capability we have but don't use too often. In fact we train for it much more often than actually use it.

Our hoist is rated for a 600lb load in high speed and a 1800lb load in slow (cargo) mode. Cable peel out should happen at 1800lb. Anyone know if these are similiar numbers to the hoist that issued the bulletin?

Also, if anyone can provide any details on that Israeli incident, it would be much appreciated.

Thanks.
