Yeah but ole Murph isn't usually the skidloader jockey or perhaps if in the case of a launch redubbed the pilot .
Ha I doubt you could launch a skidloader but this yahoo at work drug a 9N Ford tractor backwards trying to stave off a leaner .Didn't work very well for him .
Well I've seen skidloaders tied off with a tad bit of slake too .They hit it a mighty lick about 20 miles per hour and amazing things happen .Namely the tree misses the lay by about a mile in most of those examples posted on various web forums .
I often wondered exactly what might happen if...
I might add some time ago this discussion arose . I noted that a 10 percent reduction in actual force was neccessary to be part of the mathematical formula to determine actual lift mechanical advantage as taken by the number of block sheeves involved .
