This is very common with pipelines now days. the bridge that I most often make people construct is made out of timber mats laying across the line if it is an air bridge the first set lays parallel to the pipeline and the crossing set of timbers are put on top of the leaving air between the crossing and the pipeline. Myself and all pipeline techs. are given standards to work by and depending on the depth, age and pressure on the line tells the extent of the crossing materials people are to use, in the past simply adding dirt to the crossing would be enough, most likely the equipment is just not your typical farm equipment. also you cannot believe the amount of time we are told this is my land and I pay all the taxes on it and will do whatever I want to do on it. The Right of Way gives the pipeline company quite a lot of rights. I was asking a guy just to not cross a pipeline with an excavator in his field only use his driveways, he became violently mad and said it was his farm and he would do as he pleased, then he started complaining about the depth of the line. So I am not saying this is the kind of case you are referring about but this is an incite to the other side of the issue. I hope this helps John

On our first cosmetic restoration, not having a manual, we carefully marked the wires, taped the magneto in the position it came off, and were careful not to turn the engine over while we had these components off. We thought we could get by with this since the engine ran perfectly and would not need any internal work. After the cleanup and painting was done, we began reassembly and finally came to t
