I have seen some photo's of her rigged up on a friends FB page,I think Liebherr had rigged her up for the initial commissioning with wind turbine jib,have to say it looked amazing!! this was a couple of weeks ago so its probably on its way to or has already started its first job with Mogs at the helm,somewhere in sunny France

I'm aniticipating a 1/50 version

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.

Nice find David. Hopefully we'll see a 1:50 version, but only if the correct type face is used on the decals this time.

Super pics, she looks smashing.. Hopefully we'll see a model of it some time.

I hope nobody forgets to pull up that drop down access ladder any time or it could be ripped clean off by the outriggers when the crane slews around! Think

I'm mainly a dirt guy but have just recently started getting into the cranes. One question for all you guys with crane knowledge, what goes into deciding whether to have a telescopic or a lattice boom crane do the job? To me, it looks like the telescopic ones are easier to assemble than the lattice boom, then again I could be wrong. And o ya, the crane does look amazing in these pics
