Oh sweet jesus!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

no more LTM11200's for me!!!!!!!!!!

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

... It's better to be silent and thought a fool, then to speak up and remove all doubt

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.

Wonder if a jib will be available for it? And if so, hope it's not as much as the crane itself like the ac500. And the counterweights look exactly the same as 8800 weights. None the less, will look great next to the 11200 doing a tandem liftThink

The ac1000 must be the best kept large new model secret ever! Remember the 11200, everyone knew about it long long before a prototype was even unveiled. And now, WHAM, and we have the ac1000 in the flesh without any warning!!! Teeth Teeth And what a beauty she looks too!

Only one thing though, not sure those outrigger mats are big enough for it!! Think Teeth

haha, I think the model has less problems than the real thing, so I'm guessing it will be out first
