    I was recently told that in order to operate a capstan hoist you must be trained and certified. if this is true is there a company that provides it? I looked at the manufacturer's web site and can't find anything, AB Chance (Hubble).

    Leading Edge Tower Services is a new company that is offering this training. We have been looking into the same training at our company. I have spoken with Jeff Johnson. jeff@leadingedegetowerservices.com

    All we did was take the Hubbel booklet and create a power point and hands on training portion. It was not very difficult as most of the "common practice" is covered by one or the other. AB Chance had no input into the How, What, or Why however the basics are all covered in their manual and roll nicely with a rigging program.
