Ainscough LG1550 accident!

Post #1 by Joes1989 » Fri Sep 09, 2011 10:37 pm

For those of you that dont know, Ainscough (ex Welex) have suffered a big accindent with the partially rigger LG1550 at Invergordon Oil Support Base, thankfully no one was injured but a 100 tonne Terex Demag also suffered a substantial amount of damage when the LG landed on it....
