@asianiinvasion It is an Sikorsky S-58T. The original airframe was a H34 and yes it did have a b17 engine in it. This one is the turbine conversion.

We do about 300 lift jobs a year. A good about are in downtown environments. Some cranes cant reach the areas that loads need to be set. Also, it may seem that cranes are safer, but that is not always the case. Cranes run the risk of collapsing right where they are, just like what happened in ny a few times back a couple of years ago. We operate under Federal Regulations, where we keep the general public clear and safe during the lift operations.

The flag on the building was about 20 feet from the tip of the rotor blade. We depend on our ground crews to look up and keep us safe and clear. It was a very tight area to work in.
