Tommy: How we flew the truss
One of the challenges in Tommy was the truss, there were 2 spans, one at 9m long, one at 7m. Ideally we would have flown it straight off the automation; the truss was strong enough (see diagram 1) but the overall weight would have been too close to the automation’s SWL of 200kg per winch (2 winches per truss).
We decided to fly the truss off 2 cw bars, with 7m stingers. Once this assembly was rigged we attached a single automation line to the truss, underweighted the cw bars so the automation was only taking 30/40kg rather than the whole load.
At this point we left the counterweight brakes off, and taped up so that the only control was from the automation. We were then able to program a number of moves into the automation desk which were executable by one operator, rather than four flymen.
