16:28 that oncoming traffic is sure moving at what appears to be 10 mph or 16 kmh lol. All the vehicles passing appear to be doing it in a slow and prudent manner, respecting the safety of the tow operators.
Complicated is ... having to replace people, equipment and supplies, at the worst possible time because some ‘extremely simple person’ decided to take a shortcut. That kind of thing can cost anywhere from dozens to thousands of lives!
We were on Ft. Hood and there was an accident and HEMMT was on it's side. Our heavy operator with a 75 ton rotator offered to roll it back on its wheels. They said, no we got it. 11 hours later with a few LMTVs and chain, they pulled it over... Yes sometimes the military over complicates things, and other times they don't...
Seeing these thick woods reminded me of when I was over there with Bco 34th SIG BN and I was the batallion wreaker driver "Lurch" . Drove a M543-A2 5ton with a rotator. I was recovering a 5-quarter out of the woods during a blizzard while trying to keep out of the ruts my boom struck a power pole that came down on to the top of my truck and knocked out all the power in this little German village. I was waiting to see if villagers with torches and picks were coming up the hill for my ass. What a night that was. It was still the best job in the Army and at 67 would jump behind the wheel in a second if I could now.

The bus won't move with the doors open, and the doors won't close. You can't drive with passengers with the doors open incase someone falls out! But the problem is with safety switches, sensors and such. the easiest way to solve this would be to bypass the door interlocks and drive the bus to the garage where it can then be properly fixed. The interlock systems are designed to be able to be bypassed if needed for maintenance there will be a local way, some wire or connection you can short out to tell the bus it's 'safe' regardless of the situation. Or a global way, where all interlocks are disabled. Note that these interlocks are a different system from the engine management. The more complicated solutions will be to mechanically interfere with the doors to either make the sensor think they are closed, or to force them shut. Either way it just saved the bus company £500-1000.
Thought there should be an option for the driver to manually & physically close & lock the door shut if its pneumatic system malfunctions & is unable to do so
@@johnrtrucker It's a 60's Mustang. They are sought everywhere. I will say one thing about German engineering. I don't know who designed the injector hold downs for the 3.0L straight 6 CDI but they were either drunk or stupid. Same goes for the company that made the underhood wiring coating as well. Outside of those unforgivable flaws the E-320 CDI we had was awesome. It got 35-40 mpg cruising at 75-80mph and handled great as well. Oh and the idiot who designed the key system that would let you into the car but wouldn't start because the $1600 sensor died should also be flogged. I loved the car but not so much the way it was built. At least I didn't pay new price for it or I might be really upset.
I'm pretty sure that when the tow truck steers left while pushing, the Antonov goes left too. it's complicated, it might have something to do with the translation. Thanks for the docu!
Here, you turn the wheel to the right, so the truck wil turn to the right, placing the connecting rod to the right hand side of the plane from our viewpoint. This will turn the steering wheels of the plane anti clockwise, making it turn to the right
28 Years Ago We Moved Stuck Jumbo Jet with a full load with just two 4 Axle Scania Long Chassis Underlifts & 4 Dp Winches. Trucks Were 144 G Scanias 530 V8'S They Dealt with it No Dramas Moved a few Now. My DAD if alive would love the modern Kit . I am a Master Rescue Mech uk.
I'm surprised that the bus recovery crew isn't required to use flaggers or a bit more signage than a few cones. I often inspect geotech drilling along roads and bridges in the US state of PA, and we have a ton of safety regulations about that. I don't like feeling the tailwind of a semi truck moving at 45-55 MPH just a few feet from me. It'll whip your hardhat right off.
Wow, Master Sergeants doing physical work. Where's all the privates in the German Army? US Army, hell with this, I'm calling in the Privates and PFCs. This is their job not mine.
@@yellowdrink9428 both of you are correct. The ECM can be programmed with a top vehicle speed and the same can be done through the TCU or gearing can be changed in the transmission as well as the differential as you stated..
@@LKN117 But the speed is not limited to 88 by the engine power. It is electronically limited at that speed. In older models you could pull the fuse of the limiter. With previous generation Scania you could add a magnet to the sensor on the gearbox so make the truck think it is standing still and sleeping, while actually driving without speed limiter :)
If that was a real combat zone putting flags and drawing on the side of a wrecked Vehicle would be last thing to happen Hook flip load and go to much drama
48:37 So lets see, a truck with 12 rubber tires that weighs maybe 20 tons can exert a "tensile force of 1850 tons". That's about 92G of lateral force. Remarkable.
About the German "Bison," tow truck... When towing the huge 8 wheeled vehicle in the video, did they have to remove drive shafts from the rear wheels, and/ or the front wheels? Or was their a "neutral," position on the transfer case? On a vehicle that's designed to be an 'all wheel drive,' it would have seemed the front wheels would have been spinning while in the air on the hook of the tow truck!
If there is a reflextion every day on tarmac & it bothers production the annoying strip of sun out. Only diff spring & fall & after axis change but idea is sound.
Wow did u see that mid 60s mustang at 19:15 to 19:25. Thats a 60s mustang in Germany, how cool is that. Lol That mil spec bison in the beginning was wayy cool, its crazy theirs only a few of them. The Buffel or however you say it was way kool too, but the narrator said it could replace its own engine with the crane. If the engine provides hydraulic power to the crane how could it replace its own engine 😂.
The object may weigh 1000 tons but it doesn't mean you tow 1000 tons. This is because the ground takes the weight and you only need to exert more force than the resistance. Otherwise how can you push a car?
volvo have only made one v8, and that was in 1952 and a petrol engine. They only make 6 cylinder inline engines now. If it should be a 500hk v8 it would be a scania
It should be done fast... 45 mins in a war zone! Heavy traffic road... 2 cars in 2 minutes, at a high! speed... barely 30 km\h. It is a very difficult job - to push a plane, because there is sun...
16:30 Traffic passes by them at a high rate of speed!? The Honda Fit drove by at 10 mph (16.09 km/h) max... Edit: I'm surprised they never mentioned the Antonov An-225.
you also have to listen to the original German language. The english translation leaves a lot out or translates just a condensed version of what the truck driver is talking...I have seen films were they have been on the highway. and THERE the trucks barrel by. and the - normal - cars dont even brake. to the contrary they swear at them or show their fists. scumbags they are..
A) you also got to remember, they mostly are on the highway where cars and trucks are going 90kmh (+ for cars) B) I think the AN-225 is too heavy and requires a different type of pushback vehicle
That dark moss green metallic paint job sure got my attention. I have a 1967 standard but same color in my garage. What a hoot to see that type car pass in either Germany or Sweden (?), not sure witch. But, when I was stationed at SpangDahlen AB, Germany I used ADAC for both years I was there. But, as they say, better to have them and not need then, than etc.etc.
At about 43 minutes, it's mentioned that the Ariana V is the most effective launch vehicle. I think that you will find that that honor goes to the SpaceX Falcon 9 booster which has a 100 + lift off and recovery record, at this time, October 6, 2021. To date, the last 100 have landed after launching their payloads.
@@aidansparkes12345678 I had to giggle at the 28 tonnes and 88 kph part. Every truck/trailer combo weighing 40 tonnes plus is doing that, even when they are supposed to be limited at 85.

I dunno. It seems like they keep needing tow trucks.
28 Years Ago We Moved Stuck Jumbo Jet with a full load with just two 4 Axle Scania Long Chassis Underlifts & 4 Dp Winches. Trucks Were 144 G Scanias 530 V8'S They Dealt with it No Dramas Moved a few Now. My DAD if alive would love the modern Kit . I am a Master Rescue Mech uk.
I'm surprised that the bus recovery crew isn't required to use flaggers or a bit more signage than a few cones. I often inspect geotech drilling along roads and bridges in the US state of PA, and we have a ton of safety regulations about that. I don't like feeling the tailwind of a semi truck moving at 45-55 MPH just a few feet from me. It'll whip your hardhat right off.
not on that kind of roads these are low traffic, how ever on the Autobahn you have the Autobahn police help you and make sure you're are safe
facts. the load has to be close to the joint where its connected to the hauling vehicle to prevent whipsaw
Wow, Master Sergeants doing physical work. Where's all the privates in the German Army? US Army, hell with this, I'm calling in the Privates and PFCs. This is their job not mine.
The truck can only do 88 km/h, cause its limited to 89 km/h (at 89 you have no power)
It could probably do a lot more without the limiter
No, they do 88 km/h,because the gear ratio is to low, truck drivers never uses rpm above 1500 without a good reason.
To bad the flux capacitor requires 88 mph... :-)
@@yellowdrink9428 both of you are correct. The ECM can be programmed with a top vehicle speed and the same can be done through the TCU or gearing can be changed in the transmission as well as the differential as you stated..
@@LKN117 But the speed is not limited to 88 by the engine power. It is electronically limited at that speed. In older models you could pull the fuse of the limiter. With previous generation Scania you could add a magnet to the sensor on the gearbox so make the truck think it is standing still and sleeping, while actually driving without speed limiter :)
@@yellowdrink9428 it's electronic in these trucks. Firetrucks has no liminer and they can hit 150km/h
If that was a real combat zone putting flags and drawing on the side of a wrecked Vehicle would be last thing to happen Hook flip load and go to much drama
48:37 So lets see, a truck with 12 rubber tires that weighs maybe 20 tons can exert a "tensile force of 1850 tons". That's about 92G of lateral force. Remarkable.
Measuring a force in "G" is reserved only for acceleration...not any force. Referring to a tensile force in G is just stupid
@@Shazzkid builds rockets do ya der buddy??....good fer you..asshole.
About the German "Bison," tow truck... When towing the huge 8 wheeled vehicle in the video, did they have to remove drive shafts from the rear wheels, and/ or the front wheels? Or was their a "neutral," position on the transfer case?
On a vehicle that's designed to be an 'all wheel drive,' it would have seemed the front wheels would have been spinning while in the air on the hook of the tow truck!
It was probably already staged with no driveshaft or axle in it. I also did5see any airlines and I doubt it has a handbrake too.
14:40 I think ur talking about a Scania R500 V8 that is a 480
19:15 surprise mustang
well... somebody realise it
I saw that too. And it's a nicer looking one than the new ones we have here in America.
19:20 sick import car
If there is a reflextion every day on tarmac & it bothers production the annoying strip of sun out. Only diff spring & fall & after axis change but idea is sound.
That mustang at 19:25 love it.
Wow did u see that mid 60s mustang at 19:15 to 19:25. Thats a 60s mustang in Germany, how cool is that. Lol
That mil spec bison in the beginning was wayy cool, its crazy theirs only a few of them. The Buffel or however you say it was way kool too, but the narrator said it could replace its own engine with the crane. If the engine provides hydraulic power to the crane how could it replace its own engine 😂.
18:47 "of a 20 meter long vehicle" , but Citaro only has 12m **--**
Clearly the bus is acting as a trailer here , so the vehicle including the truck is 20m
The object may weigh 1000 tons but it doesn't mean you tow 1000 tons. This is because the ground takes the weight and you only need to exert more force than the resistance. Otherwise how can you push a car?
volvo have only made one v8, and that was in 1952 and a petrol engine. They only make 6 cylinder inline engines now. If it should be a 500hk v8 it would be a scania
Ever heard of Volvo Penta? 😎
@@k1mm0 används inte i lastbilar. Stolle
Det vet jag mycket väl ;) för har varit både inom penta och PV. Var mest ett svar på att Volvo "aldrig" har gjort en v8 :)
@@k1mm0 han skrev inte att volvo aldrig gjort v8 :)
The gear ratio must be enormous on these transmissions .
wich vehicle ?
He is so calm, and that's why he'll never be taken seriously 😴
V8 volvo hmmm OK thinking your facts are rather wrong. Also it's supposed to be for 40 tonnes and up. The service bus weights 1/3rd of that at best.
Unrelated, but it caught my eye; at 19:22 it's rather odd to see a 1960s Ford Mustang pass the work crew, in Germany, in the 2000s.
At 28:00, take the headlight off to put the pin in, wtf?
I guess they wouldn't do that in the middle of the war zone. Just put the pin in and go away. But I still need an explanation.
I like that massive Ukrainian jet. I just saw a Turkish jet. I served with the USAF in Turkey for 2 years, 1957-1958.
I get the need for dramatisation but Seriously @16:27 "High speed" Bull crap! Safety, sure but speed nope don't BS like that
GOOD VIDEO. GOOD JOB
It should be done fast... 45 mins in a war zone! Heavy traffic road... 2 cars in 2 minutes, at a high! speed... barely 30 km\h. It is a very difficult job - to push a plane, because there is sun...
Overdramatization

R.I.P. Antonov 😢
8:48 500 hp? Doesn't matter much how much torque does it have n others?
my thoughts exactly. i guess horsepower "sounds" better than torque.
Do you have time to write the chalk diagrams while under heavy fire?
Yes but you have to use cammo chalk!!!!
Is that a mustang? In Germany? On a casual drive? An American car? @19.22?
Volvo har ingen V8. Dom har bara 6 cyl motorer.
Thanks you very very much...Excellent...From Kentucky USA...!
16:30 Traffic passes by them at a high rate of speed!? The Honda Fit drove by at 10 mph (16.09 km/h) max...
Edit: I'm surprised they never mentioned the Antonov An-225.
you also have to listen to the original German language. The english translation leaves a lot out or translates just a condensed version of what the truck driver is talking...I have seen films were they have been on the highway. and THERE the trucks barrel by. and the - normal - cars dont even brake. to the contrary they swear at them or show their fists. scumbags they are..
A) you also got to remember, they mostly are on the highway where cars and trucks are going 90kmh (+ for cars) B) I think the AN-225 is too heavy and requires a different type of pushback vehicle
Nice 👍👍👍
16:30 Oncoming traffic is passing them at high speed. 🤣🤣🤣
Paweł Skupiński 😂
Not seen in video, guy passes by in wheelchair.
awesome channel ❤❤❤❤
32:20 400 tonnes of freight? No, but it might have a 400 tonne maximum takeoff weight... slight difference...
That dark moss green metallic paint job sure got my attention. I have a 1967 standard but same color in my garage. What a hoot to see that type car pass in either Germany or Sweden (?), not sure witch. But, when I was stationed at SpangDahlen AB, Germany I used ADAC for both years I was there. But, as they say, better to have them and not need then, than etc.etc.
An armored vehicle would work perfect in Philly
Would be fun on the blvd and in the city :)
Nice 👍 video 👍
Wait... so if I’m getting shot at.... I would have to remove the headlight.... not worth it
Yeah, there's no way that made a difference!!!!!
I thought the same thing. Hook up and get the hell out of dodge, then maybe once in a safe haven, rehook!
4:55 Why are the recovery jacks set differently?
I thought that too. I recon its bent
37:20
I am surprised,that thing didnt pull the wall of.
@19:22, I had to think, wait, am I watching an American or German documentary? A classic Mustang?
definitely a rare mustang in Germany!!
thanks to its 500hp v8 engine :DDD there is reading "480" on the side and volvo doesnt make v8 engines on trucks.... :D
10:55 somebody look into that guy, he’s gonna be a suspect
nice video!
14:37 Tamiya model anyone?
amazing, only 2 inches diameter pin can haul over 1000 tons platform.
respect,sunshine
8:04 yeah that’s a terrible spot to put a chain wait until that axle housing bends and u need a new axel
At about 43 minutes, it's mentioned that the Ariana V is the most effective launch vehicle. I think that you will find that that honor goes to the SpaceX Falcon 9 booster which has a 100 + lift off and recovery record, at this time, October 6, 2021. To date, the last 100 have landed after launching their payloads.
Soyuz-2?
Probably not at the time this documentation as made.
LOVE THE INTRO
17:01 I love how they say it can't move the door is stuck yet here we are door closed on the bus.
What he meant was there was a sensor malfunction so it couldn't start cause it couldn't confirm that the door was closed
The ford mustang become the star of the movie.
That narrator needs to get his fact right.
I stopped watching at -“it’s powered by hydraulic power steering”
yeah also volvo doesn't produce v8 engines with 500hp on a truck with a 480hp badge
You mean the writer? The narrator just reads a script.
many facts in this are just made up waffle
@@aidansparkes12345678 I had to giggle at the 28 tonnes and 88 kph part. Every truck/trailer combo weighing 40 tonnes plus is doing that, even when they are supposed to be limited at 85. Oh and try to count the total amount of "IF"s in an episode.... IFFFF the bus slides off, IFFFF the weather turns nasty, IFFFFF the sky falls down, IFFFFFFFF a nuclear bomb were to go off.......
Hydrostatic power steering upgrade on my corvette made it sick fast V12 turbo charged Military Diesel litres per kilometer.

@ 19:22 Did everyone spot that Mustang.
IN GERMANY ! ! !
Wow, I saw it on 19:23.
Lovely black Mustang
Uhm yeah ... a Mustang isnt really rare in Germany
American cars can be spotted all over Europe. Not really anything special.
Would like to see the top 10 biggest fire trucks in the world. Think one is in Finland, on a SISU.

skid plates can hve rollers under them to lessen the wear on the back up plates. Tire lifts or lowers plane to move all on 1 tall tire.
