Title: Skyhook
Post by: Ianab on October 29, 2003, 10:34:28 PM
Seen several posts regarding a Skyhook for moving logs.
Was at a local Airshow last weekend and saw just the thing.

Of course you need the rest of the gear....

 And I guess a truck to haul the logs home

Does the skyhook activate on lift alone?

As far as I can see the hook was just activated by lift from the chopper. The were picking up and moving the logs you see on truck as part of the airshow.. but was off getting food with the kids and missed getting pics of that  :(
