Kevin, I'm glad your back with us. I thought you had sold all your equipment and got out of the hobby. Looking forward to some more new videos. Welcome back.

Hey Mog, glad to be back, I see most of the old gang is here! The skidder needs a little work, some hydraulic issues.. I need a mechanic to come North, the 740 is still broke down as well....

Still in Northern Alberta, my company wouldn't let me move, lol.... I am stuck here for a few more years. But got some property now so its not so bad.. Lot's of room for the construction crew to work.

Welcome. Nice equipment you have! Good ole Alberta. I spent some time in Edmonton a long time ago - and last week actually as I was passing through changing planes. I worked seismic and on the rigs in Alberta an even longer time ago. Now, Vancouver Island is home ... and warm. Whereabouts are you at?

New into this type of RC. Have been and still am flying RC Helicopters and Planes. And thought this is something good to do over the winter.

Hey Richard, I am in Grande Prairie, about 4.5 hours north of Edmonton, not so warm, lol...

GP. I know it (sort of) well, having lived and worked there for a bit many years ago. It's a good place to see lots of oilfield equipment for someone not directly involved in the oilfield (me that is, don't know about you). I used to see oilfield equipment all the time when I worked on a rig but that was a long time ago. You just don't see many twin steer pickers here on the island, and definitely no bed trucks.

Just about all the trucks you see here are twin steer, tri drive, pickers, bed trucks, big winch tractors, massive frac crew convoys. They are everywhere. Hauling drilling rigs, and service rigs through town and so on. Its pretty cool for seeing that kind of stuff.....
