	Electricity Today Magazine Article -- Multi-use "AirStair" improves Line Crew Productivity Significantly
		Realizing a continuing need to be able to maximize staff productivity and access structures efficiently in hard-to-reach locations, one of the veteran pilots, John Bosomworth, conceived a design which could be used on the remaining fleet of helicopters for line maintenance work.

		Since this spring, the 'AirStair' has been utilized on two skywire replacement jobs - a 115 KV on H-Frame double wood pole structures with the circuit alive and, more recently, on a 115 KV double circuit steel tower structures.
