How much setup time are you actually saving on those tight spots? I ran a lattice for years and the switch made sense on paper, but downtown is a whole different beast with power lines and tight corners everywhere. Curious how the hydraulic handles when you gotta reach over a building or squeeze between two of them. We had a job where the boom had to swing right past a live wire and it was sketchy as hell. Do you find yourself turning down jobs now that you couldn't do before, or is it more about just getting in and out faster?

What exactly are you checking on those walkarounds, or are you just doing the same loop every time without really looking? 500 days with nothing found usually means your eyes are skipping over stuff out of habit, not that the plane is perfect. Try picking one system per day and really digging into it instead of the same quick pass.
