we were talking about tilting up 25g/45g and I mentioned the wind turbine guys.

I was just surfing around and found a company that actually sells ginpole kits for 
tilting up 25g and 45g (this is not the ginpole we normally talk about for lifting 
sections)

there spec sheet shows their setup

looking here, they purport to have kits for up to 80ft 25g

They have 45g kits here, again going to 80ft

they use a fixed (guyed) schedule 80 1.5" pipe for the gin pole, as opposed to 
falling derrick.
