  1. what a chopper
  2. mate having drove them out in afghan in a operational environment there a load of rubbish we went through them like underpants kept breaking down falling apart we mainly used them for casualty extraction from the patrol base or to the landing zone or bringing mail and food off the chopper in the end we just used quad a trailer couldn't trust them. now whether this was a factor of environment and squiddies abusing them i am not sure but they spent most of the times on axle stands with bits hanging off them. would they work for what you want? quite possibly i would think you may need a lot of patients with it but it could make a liar out of me and we were using an early version of them so maybe if its a newer one you might be onto a winner would be very interested to see if you get one how you get on good luck

  21. well i understand the fact you have to do the "bull" to get the right accreditation etc and if that means sitting in a classroom and ticking the preverbal boxes and passing all the different criteria etc to get a "stamp of approval" plus its progression of my skills and knowledge and its as you said shows commitment to the industry which iam all for and it also shows the customer that you're committed to tree care well being etc . dont get me wrong plenty of arb contractors / surgeons etc working to a high standard who aren't members. i just thought from a personal development point of view and the fact am going to be taking the rains of a arb business in the next few years i would ask some questions and hear if from the horses mouths.
