Helicopter and Riggers Sections of new mast Emley Moor

[@mervynsands3501]

These jobs call for highest standards of work and safety measures, the helicopters are a great help and speed up engineering times to the benefit of all. That ain't easy, patience and precision needed to do it right. Thanks for sharing😉👍

The original emley moor transmitter was a similar lattice tower it was erected by polish riggers and was brought down by ice on the stay cables The concrete tower was it’s replacement Thanks for filming this I have seen the tower but missed them erecting it, Nice little bit of history You have filmed

I cannot begin to describe how exhilarating it is working on high structures, lattice masts in particular.

OMG! Rather you than me ;)

Pucker factor was definitely a 10+... Camera work was really great, both near and far.

The Super Puma helicopter is now living in the Cote d'Azur.. A bit of a drop from Yorkshire. Never mind.

[@BlackCountryWoodsman]

[@JuliaHoustonebikeTouring]

[@BlackCountryWoodsman]

Julia Houston The Quiet Cyclist Eek! I dont do heights lol....Good for you Jules 👍🏻

[@JuliaHoustonebikeTouring]

No I hate heights, never again!

[@blackgoldestates172]

this is a tower not a mast !

[@JuliaHoustonebikeTouring]

I suppose Emley moor tv tower has a better ring to it.

[@olicake8777]

A tower is a self supporting structure, a mast has cable guides. So the new one being built is a mast and original a tower

[@geoffpriestley7001]

Its still up there i can see it from my lounge window . must if i had to build it we'd all be on cable

[@GazianoOutdoors]

That's madness, wouldn't get me up there, 👍

[@JuliaHoustonebikeTouring]

Me neither.
