Scissor lifts at full extension are terrifying.

A pretty big plane tail, yes.

If you invested in flying wings, you wouldn’t need to make these modifications.

Well, look who’s all Jack Northrop over here. “Meh meh meh, yaw control can be in the wing meh meh”. Nobody cares.

I used to have to put boats up on our forklift fully extended, then carefully maneuver them into the rack building at 30' up. So picture the lift you see below, with a 5,000lb boat on top, in motion, with steel structure all around.

Yeah, it seems like an accident waiting to happen. I’ve never been on a fully extended scissor lift, but I can imagine it wouldn’t take much to tip it over. And it probably moves around with every tiny movement.

Maybe the USAF should’ve invested in the 1930’s, I can’t solve it now.

The batteries and hydraulics weigh a lot
at the bottom, but the “
acceptable motion”
in all the joints is way more than would feel comfortable to a person accustomed to THE GROUND.

Those are really big scissor lifts too.

Seriously. Deadspin recently had a pic of one in the background at an NFL football practice, and it looked horrifying, can’t believe they still use those after what happened at Notre Dame (get some drones or something guys).

My best friend in high school worked graveyard shift with me in a warehouse. He had a 5,000# box of metal fasteners up on the fourth rack (30' or so, near max extension) and had to maneuver the truck around quite a bit. The whole thing tipped over — down the length of the row — and was a total loss. Metal fasteners were embedded in the steel walls, they shot out so fast. A 3" deep crater in the concrete floor. Nobody was hurt, but the manager on duty got in deep trouble on that one. The kid had barely been trained at all and wasn’t properly licensed.
Don’t even get me started on the crackheads who drove the Order Pickers...

The base of those scissor lifts weighs about a ton. It’s not going anywhere.

Holy hell that must have made an incredible noise. We never*
dropped a boat off the forklift or anything, but we regularly picked up boats out of the water that would tip the forklift over going up the ramp (rear wheels off the ground). The fun part was launching those
boats that were too heavy, because you had to remember to go very slowly down the ramp - braking only caused the rear end to go up and then
of course you’d lose steering. Once you got the boat down into the water of course you could stop.
*one time a small aluminum boat kinda bounced off the forks from a low height (3 feet maybe) after going over a bump too fast. It was old and beat up to begin with; it was fine.
