Nice shots again sir, I see you had the cable cutters attached in case of trouble!  :rolleyes:

Thanks Roger!  Yeah, just in case but I wonder if they're really be able to cut through those tram lines.  They're pretty stout.  I would not want to try it.

You better hold off on that until you land on a tram platform "Justin Case" you have to put down somewhere bad. ;)

Cool shots. You can always use the big cutters just fly upside down. Awesome area.

:lol:  Thanks.  "Just" fly upside down.  I can try but I doubt those blades would take kindly to several million volts!  Big cutters, I was laughing out loud.

Having worked for the Bonneville Power Administration for 30 some years, I very much enjoyed your pictures and the need to inspect the lines.

Thanks PDX!  I've always wondered what they did from a helicopter, I mean they can't touch them, all they can do is look at them.  Must be a dangerous job.

 

When I get a chance I want to use the chopper to follow the pipeline in Valdez.  I saw someone else do it and though it might be fun.
