100%. Dave even said it himself, old tires. No one wants to admit it when dealing with low-usage vehicles but old tires are bad tires. The tread can be perfectly fine but the tire is still done. Even if they're expensive, you still have to replace them regularly, that's the life you choose when you drive something that takes special tires.

@@raynetorrin Not an excuse. If for whatever reason the OE-spec tires are no longer available new you either change to a different tire or do what the LM002 owners do and get together a group buy that justifies a new production run of the original one. For off-road use where you're only risking yourself and/or your equipment do whatever you want, but knowingly taking a truck pulling a load on the highway with dried up old tires that are actively failing is plainly irresponsible. Yes it's expensive, but specialty vehicles require specialty parts and maintenance. No one's ever been forced to buy one of these things, pay the cost to be the boss.

you parked that better than most people park their cars in between the lines.

I believe you need a stc for a cargo hook for both choppers. You could deliver tools, supplies, tires, generators etc at any site. The hooks are located on the center of gravity ( cg ) right along the center line of the main rotor mast making it easy to calculate your useful load along with your fuel load, pilot weight, operating altitude and mission distance. The chopper could had delivered jacks tools and tires right to the site. No need for the tow truck at all. I’m a retired A&P, IA…

@@jono6379in my original post I mentioned STC that’s means that the current aircraft could be certified for cargo providing it has been approved via a supplemental type certificate ( STC ). For helicopters of that class such as the Blackhawk and the dolphin. I’m pretty sure STCs are available for that modification. Both of those helos are used in cargo operations in the military, for the Blackhawk and the dolphin for Coast Guard Usage. Obtaining an STC should not be a big deal. As far as a certified loadmaster for the helicopters. that could be one or many of his employees who would normally be assisting and directing him for loading and dropping off the cargo at the correct landing/ takeoff site . The loading and mathematical calculations to operate the helicopter safely within its flight envelope would be very easy to install that on board computer program.. the loadmaster would sign off on that data input. Ultimately, it is the pilots responsibility that all. Data paperwork and flight operation are done within approved standards by the FAA pilot operating handbook including STC alterations.

There are strict limitations and rules around flying with a suspended load. One of the main ones being you cannot fly over populated areas. There is also extra paperwork, certificates, and licenses requirements. Much much easier to just load things into the cargo bay.

7-tons can drive with 4 tires on improved roads and paved. We had kits put together where you have 2 long black rods, wood block, and bottle jack. You used the rod to hold the flat tire up. They are designed to take the tires from the middle to fix flats.

Hans drove the truck so long after the second tire blew, he was reckless, and could have cause way more damage to other people, himself, amd the truck. You really want that guy flying you multi million dollar aircraft. Ops the rotors were making a funny noise, but we just kept going because Dave can afford a new one. Unreal.

you guys should do a touch a truck event for your community ...bring out all your cool rigs,heavey ,equipment,boats,tractor trailers,razors,blackhawk,dolhpine n you let the kids check them out...its a great way too give back...you can have food truck venders,rent a bounce house for the kids,,,,makes for a great time with family ,friends and possibly ne friends

I'm all for using the black hawk for simple things like this. It's like when someone has an exotic sports car but always garage keeps it and never drives it. So hey. Blackhawk actuslly getting used, nice. Thats sick😌👌🏽

Man, when those tires go they really go....lol I have to agree that was probably a very very expensive tire change, but like you said if you have the equipment you might as well use it and it's always fun to see the Blawk Hawk fly.

HeavyD is taking roadside repairs to new heights. .... Yepp, that was a pun. You're welcome! 😁😁😁

As an active duty US Navy Seabee and spending a good 5 years with the MTVRs. The mid axle is actually your spares. Your missing the chock ramps that are stored under the passenger steps that allow you to compress the mid axle suspension followed by a locking bar to keep the mid axle suspension locked in the compressed position. allowing you to put that wheel on the blown out axle. If you need some part numbers let me know. Also look into government DRMO for new tires, We just changed out a bunch due to "5 year" life cycle but have 10 miles on them from driving in the yard.
