Little Govt Contractor Math 101 for ya to digest...

Last year all aircraft squadron hangar dock floors (regardless of aircraft squadron) were scrubbed with machines, paint chips/dust vacuumed into huge HEPA filtration containers, and each dock, one at the time, repainted with epoxy paint. All hazardous areas, green areas, red areas, and yellow walkways striped, etc, etc. Each dock was repainted to the tune of $88K per dock. In C-17's alone there are 10 docks btwn three hangars...a fraction of the total docks that were scrubbed/re-painted. This is still on-going by the way...

Now the hangar/dock lighting upgrades are in full effect. Each dock in C-17's has 72 metal halide lights in the ceilings...four docks each in two of our hangars, and two docks in the other hangar. 720 lights total just in C-17's. C-5's larger hangars have almost 50% more lights than we do per dock to give some perspective. The contractors, out of central Florida, brought eight 80-ft JLG's with 'em when they started. And they are knocking this *s-wordt out quick replacing each metal halide light with a 4ft, six strip LED (3 strips each side of the center of the light).

I'll let some of you take a wild ass guess as to what this is costing Uncle Sugar...just for the C-17 hangars alone, much less all flightline hangars. I'll give ya a hint...the HMFIC of this electrical contracting company can retire five times over after all this LED lighting upgrade is said and done, across all these hangars.

Stalker....

Ironic huh. The police say we should be observant, but you observe through the wrong window at 2am and their lawyer gets involved. Mixed signals...

 

[Kiwioilboiler]

We usually don’t get loads like this from a single supplier, usually just 8 to 10 skids per day and the warehouse guys can usually handle it (now that we have a good group of guys that all work hard).

That why you took half a dozen pretty young things to lunch mate?.....

Fertilizer prices and supplies have always been crazy how they fluctuate. How you guys budget for that crap always amazed me.

@GCJenks204 you have a great Canadian made product that works very good on untreated wood.

My FIL used it on their dock at the cabin. He switched out the old cedar planks with untreated pine he got from the amish sawmill. So far after a couple years it looks unchanged from the day he treated it.

What's in it you reckon Brad? No msds to snoop on.
We use this a lot for treating end cuts in pressure treated timber. It's mineral turpentine and copper effectively. Can also stand ends in a bucket of it and let it soak it up.

I dug up a msds for it once upon a time but supplier trade secret was all that was listed for the chemicals. It could very well be a copper oxide based treatment. The product you referenced is more similar to a traditional copper based pressure treatment.
