Climbing a GE 1.6MW Turbine

I once climbed a 120ft water tower when I was a teenager. You don’t know what fear is until lactic acid starts building up in your muscles, 100ft in the air, with nowhere to relax. I’m lucky to be alive after that, and I was a 150lb teenager that could easily do 10 pull-up’s.

The tower(vertical part)is made of steel and the blades are made of mainly fiber glass

@@MarioisawesomeXD yes, you are mostly correct, I think 80-150 is a little more average, I’ve heard of site tech’s making $50,000 all the way up to $110,000 plus 10-15% yearly bonuses. Then on the other end, heavy traveling which sometimes isn’t so heavy you can bring in that 160k with 150 per diem with $40+ hourly plus overtime for a more skilled individual. But don’t forget with that per diem being untaxed its more so compared to a 200k salary if you can work all year without more than a month or so of bench time.

[@dillonkob]

@@MarioisawesomeXD Pattern energy, Nextera averages about $75k/yr, I personally wouldn’t take a site tech job for under 100k/yr and I’ve had the offers. Only reason I wouldn’t take it is because it’s hard to leave that per diem.
