End of an Era

Yes, that was interesting Cinders. Do these cranes not have a built in load sensor to warn the operator when he tries to lift too much for a given angle, extension and ballasting etc.? Or does the use of blocks(?) on the cable rule that out?

Just the sight of those massively heavy and long booms relative to the footprint of the crane sets off my "spidey senses".
