The lads on the site said that this was only its 3rd or 4th lift since they got it. And they have it almost a year now! Not good.

She does look grand and still think it is one of the best looking LG's out there. I had also heard she was under worked and was perhaps moving on. Guess time will tell if this is true or not.

Wow, is the Whyte LG possibly being sold after such a short time?. That's bad news and incase it proves to be true I would keep all these Whyte photos in a safe place because they may become rare!

Lovely shots, what a monster Applause

Completely agree with ya Gus, seems people are more interested in seeing the same ould pics of a certain 2 big manitowocs that have been sitting on a test pad for 12 months than seeing pics of different cranes out working in our lil' country Teeth Wink

Not jealous but certainly envious as I would love to see some of these big rigs up close and personnel. Wish I'd seen these photos before my repaint...............might have seen the Whytes logo on the operators cab Confused

But very nice set of photos Noel!

Thanks guys i'm glad you liked the pics, its a pity it was such a dull gloomy morning that we went to see it as the pics would be 10 times better on a clear bright day, oh well!

Does anyone know if whytes still have an ltm11200 on order? I would find it hard to see why they would buy one now if they are struggling to find work for the LG.

I've not heard if they are still getting one or not. But if they do, then I might have to consider another repaint Smile

My HN Krane LTM11200 arrived yesterday, this livery has really grown on me, its a livery that looks much much nicer in the flesh than in photos. NZG and HTM did a great job on the model, the attention to detail is superb from the special anniversary box to the decaling on the inside of the front outriggers which is a great touch. One of the nicest 112's so far in my opinion.

Nice addition. I agree that it is one of the nicest 112's out there and am looking forward to getting it.

I'm surprised Big Hamish hasn't made it yet Wink

Great stuff on the Harvey Norman 112,you're right! i think it looks much better than even on pics on other websites,the colours look so deep,you'll have to get it up now,send 'er into the clouds,although the weather today no doubt exceeds a safe wind speed Wink or thats your excuse anyway Teeth Teeth

Where are all the BAM repaints????? Wink Teeth

Why is "phonetically" spelt with a "ph"?

The complex of Newgrange was originally built between c. 3100 and 2900 BC,[2] meaning that it's aproximately 5,000 years old. According to Carbon-14 dates,[3] it is more than 500 years older than the Great Pyramid of Giza in Egypt, and predates Stonehenge by about 1,000 years.
