I'm out here workin' it in the former Soviet Union whenever the snow falls (all the time) in addition to workin' the normal line. In a pretty pimp *** International too...

Looks warm

 

Neat pics.

Looks like an interesting job.

 

Looks like a fun time.

 

who are ya'll kiddin'...that looks miserable!!

 

Looks pretty cool!
What the heck is that in the second picture? It looks like a gun on a joy stick.

 

It controls that little extendable rig in front of the truck, looks like it is for fuel or something?

Edit: Correction, looks like it steams the snow and ice off of planes?

 

Oh ya, count me in.

 

Looks like fun to me -- but I grew up in Minnesota, so I like weather like that.....

 

Close, deicer rig. 2400gal of glycol heated to 190 degrees. If the basket guy is good, can get two C-17s done.

So doin' a deice job and caught the first shot from my mirror.

"**** we're on fire."





But turns out the IP pump went south on the German Deuz diesel that runs the hydro and fluid pumps back there. Still had pressure though, so pressed on with the mission then turned the truck in.

Loaner we stole from the KC135s here is an older non extended reach that makes our Ttails tricky to get too, but gotta use what we can. Funny to hear a T444e under the hood to. Makes me miss my 7.3L powerstroke. Also miss the air ride seat of our nice deicer. Can still make it look cool though with my pimpin' safety 'script sunglasses.
