Where is everyone #2!!

Another day in the books. Spent some real quality time with the crew of Heavy Lift 6 loading two keel sections for a 747 onto their plane. As is always the norm, was supposed to load both trailers yesterday afternoon, move them overnight to Alliance airport and put them on the plane at 06:00 this morning. I finally pulled out of Grand Prairie with the second load at 5:30 pm this evening. Oh and of course the Antonov only charges about $20,000.00 an hour for sitting and waiting, thank god I'm not the one paying that bill.

Anyway she went wheels up about an hour ago headed to Everett, WA where she'll offload and head back here for two more trips Tuesday and Wednesday. I'm off for the next two days now till we run the next round of moves. And as is usual, everything has been pushed back a day so my home time this week isn't going to happen. Best laid plans change 11 times in the first 5 minutes

 

Loaded @ Keen's yard in Sanford, NC. D-6 (T) military cat with a winch.. hit the weights on the $$, (79,920#)... then.. APU finally quit (low voltage so trips circuit breaker) and then fan switch on dash only has highest speed still working... hopefully goes to the respective shops after delivering @ TOTE in Tacoma. figures for a near new Peterwreck me thinks

 

I thought I heard Buck say you came out heavy.

Not much exciting happening here, Mark headed back to Savannah Friday with the skins I dropped off in Weatherford a couple weeks ago. Did the Antonov dance Friday afternoon and all day yesterday and now just hanging till we do the Antonov dance again. I need to take the 650 trailer and get a new tire, get it serviced and get an annual inspection on it and my truck

 

Jeffersonville oh loves just got done barbecuing now time to spiffy up the ride looks like its fixin to rain

Maybrook, NY at the TA. Going to run down the road tithe airport in the morning and drop the wagon in the hangar. Then head back over Tuesday and unload into a Antonov headed to Turkey. Then I'll prob bounce empty over to Pittsburgh and see what I can find for Wednesday if I can't get any railroad axles out of Altoona
