    I haven't posted anything in a while since I don't want to give away anything about my gravy gig. Here's a load I'm under now, a fuel tank.

    14 years ago my summer "intern" position was going to a plant where we bought one of those used presses. Load it onto the truck with a forklift.

    Then meet the guy the next week and help unload it from his truck.

    It moved all of 200 miles. Paid $3 per mile in 1999.

    Well it seems as though my stuff isn't as exciting as some of the others on here but I started this week loading a left wing for a Boeing P-8A Poseidon (Think 737NG) and brought it here to China Lake Naval Warfare Center. We arrived at about 2:15 this afternoon then an hour later after the whole high level security crap we took them 13 miles into the desert to a drop pad where our trailers our now. We're going back in the morning at 06:30 to take them off road a few more miles where they will off load them then shoot them full of holes. 16' Wide, 58'8" long, 2 pilot cars from Washington then 2 more CHP officers the last 130 miles. Sorry but no pictures from inside, they took our camera's and cell phones but it's cool especially if your into military aviation.

    Tomorrow it's off to Point Magu and thats all I'm allowed to say about that.

    I hate backing in there! The big hump just inside the bay door makes it fun trying to keep a spread axle straight

    and they say flatbedders can't back up......


    I have had more instances of PITA backing situations with a flat than a reefer.

    It was pretty tight, the trick was to get really straight to start with.
