This skill set seems to be of high demand and low supply. Can the OT point me in the direction of locating an operator for a 4 to 5 month assignment in the Greater NOLA area?

I can operate a crane if you give me a 12-pk and a few hours to get familiar with the equipment

I'd be willing to give it a shot.

Sounds like fun.

Never ran a tower crane, very experienced on gantries and very heavy bridge cranes.
What is the motor and control set up on those? I realize I am not qualified to operate that, but was curious about the set-up, is it electric with electronic controls, or strictly a friction rig?

I'm told it's even harder to find one that can even pass a drug test.

Haven't you noticed all the crane operators died in the "Strange Deaths" thread.

Call B&G. They'll send a crane with an operator.
