🇺🇸✈️ Bringing history home to Belmont County ✈️🇺🇸
Today was more than just a lift—it was a moment our community will remember for years to come. Stingray Rentals was proud to donate the lift for Union Local High School’s Thunderbird Jet Project, helping place this incredible aircraft so it can stand as a symbol of pride, history, and inspiration for future generations.
Watching this jet rise and come to rest on its pedestal was truly something special.
This project came together because of an amazing team effort, and we want to give a huge shoutout to:
Jay at Worldwide Aircraft Recovery and their crew;
The F-16 UL Crew—Dirk, Pete, Bernie, Becky, Vicki, Taylor;
Richard of Buckeye Steel;
Ed at Logotek for the decals;
ICR and 1 Call (Brad) for the chain falls.
When hardworking people and great companies come together, amazing things happen. We were honored to bring out our new Link-Belt 86100, operated by Houston Barber of Stingray Rentals, to help place this piece of history right here in our community.
This wasn’t just about equipment—it was about teamwork, pride, and giving something meaningful back to the people of Belmont County.
Our President, James Parker—a proud veteran—stepped up without hesitation when the opportunity arose to support this important part of our local history. We’re also grateful for our District Manager, Steve Tankesly, and each and every man and woman who has honorably served our country 🇺🇸
