Getting a plane out of a tree
After the last time I put a plane into a tall tree I brought that problem up at our next club meeting. We had to have some way to get these planes down. One of our members was familiar with how the electric power company in our area works. They use very long telescoping poles to do part of their work. Periodically these poles must be tested to make certain they pass some insulation test. It seems that at some point many of the poles fail the test and must be replaced. I urge all clubs to contact someone at the power company and reserve the next discarted telescoping pole. And do not use that pole to get a plane off a power line. Call the power company.
