I'm sitting and watching the history channel, a program about gangs in ANCHORAGE, AL..Later a progam on ICE ROAD TRUCKERS.
These fotos are from the parking lot, the blades are from the WIND GENERATORS that are popping up all over the country. I spoke with a few drivers and escort car drivers. these blades are 123 foot long. they weight about 28000# per pair. the trailer weighs another 28000#... Total load is typically 78000# +...The blades can be as long as 148 foot. The one foto is how they steer the real axle for turning. It can be controlled remotely from the rear escort vehicle. The towers these generaators sit upon are upards of 300 feet tall.
