Where you at ? I've done a fair bit of work like that ,,,, Contact a local JATC and get into an apprenticeship. Sooner or later you will get on a crew that uses a helocopter to set poles or fly you from tower to tower.Then when you top out you can chase the big bird from job to job. E.S.:cool:

That sweet yah got on. We do lots of chopper work at my utility. We do both skid, and long line. long line has a lot more versitility. do to having a none conductive rope, with bieng able to ground and much more. Were building a new tranny line about 15 miles and already the project is under budget by 45000 and were not even halfway done! way safe and what a time saver. Have a blast brother and be safe.
