I couldn't resist...it's what my mind was really seeing...

Back in the 90's we had a Hughes 500. We developed a boom that mounted on the side of the ship. While in flight it folded up and held the antenna just below the rotor, when we got to the destination it folded down and we could detach the antenna and place it on the point. This was back in the days before RTK. We went through all the hoops to get FAA approval for the boom.
You must be BLM, they are the only ones I am aware of that have a nomex requirement. Are there others?

I grew up in Homer, and one of my best friends growing up is a surveyor, basically his whole family is. Any of you guys know Christopher Mullikin?
I know Chris, and his dad and uncle Don and Tim.
