wwarped 0 #3 July 13, 2005 QuoteDoes anyone know who changes the light bulbs on Antennas? a couple years ago, a freeflyer stopped by our dz for a few jumps. he was on the road inspecting towers (for Sprint, I believe). as he was paid per tower, he was a climbing fool! now if I had just got the combinations... (wasn't active back then ) DON'T PANIC The lies in learning how to throw yourself at the ground and miss. sloppy habits -> sloppy jumps -> injury or worse Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NickDG 23 #4 July 13, 2005 Tower maintenance is mostly contracted out to companies like this: http://www.bext.com/_CGC/tower.htm There is a jumper in Texas back in the eighties that did light tower maintenance like changing out light bulbs. He was also a heck of a shot with rifle . . . NickD BASE 194 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
