GGR’s mini spider crane helps build Bomber Command memorial
Our 4 tonne capacity Unic URW-547 mini spider crane was used to precisely position the granite pieces of the memorial together on this restricted access area of coastline 450 feet above the English Channel. A crowd of spectators watched GGR’s team of expert operators as they carefully lifted the two sections into position on a central plinth.
An RAF Chinook helicopter was used to transport the stone loads and Unic mini crane from nearby Beachy Head Road to the memorial’s final location on the cliff edge
