CanadianScottish Posted December 4, 2007 Share Posted December 4, 2007 Here goes. It appears to be an advertising banner for Courtaulds Aerospace fixed to a couple of ladders, if I'm not mistaken :-D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony B Posted December 4, 2007 Share Posted December 4, 2007 My bet is the advertising on the judges stand on the RA point to point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fv1609 Posted December 4, 2007 Author Share Posted December 4, 2007 an assault ladder? Yes very good. How would it be deployed? Is there anything/anybody that tows it, carries it, pushes it, lifts it? http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v684/fv1620/App0649f.jpg[/img] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richard Farrant Posted December 5, 2007 Share Posted December 5, 2007 Yes very good. How would it be deployed? Is there anything/anybody that tows it, carries it, pushes it, lifts it? From the back of a 4 tonner? It looks quite bulky, unless it is mounted on a purpose built trailer chassis. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
