cygnusx1 Posted April 26, 2007 Share Posted April 26, 2007 That's what my Grandfather did in the 1920's-1940's in Northern Italy. Only he travelled under the lines with a motorcycle, scope, binoculars and hunting dog, to inspect high tension lines from the ground. He always took his hunting gear with him and mixed work with hunting. He was also a national champion clay shooter. That is a cool job no matter how you look at it. Not many people with that on their resume! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(goldfish) Posted April 27, 2007 Share Posted April 27, 2007 I'm surprised that the two lines are the same voltage. I wonder what they do when getting to the towers, and how much of the sparks was really discharging the copters static charge? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
