Rudi Greyling from South Africa created this amazing video showing time lapse photography of building his Van&#8217;s RV-7. He posted this video to the vansairforce.net website &#8211; but I figured youtube would save bandwidth and make for easier sharing.

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>Heavy Duty, Flexible Solutions for Businesses</strong></p>
<p>When you think of a warehouse, or an industrial marina for large boats, you envision a brick-and-motor or metal building, right? Right. But now businesses around the world have a solution for temporary warehouses or buildings: fabric structures.</p>
<p>Fabric structures are the perfect temporary solution for industrial and commercial portable buildings and structures. What are the benefits of fabric structures?</p>
<p> <strong>Economical</strong> â Because you wonât need a foundation, construction crew to build the structure or the costs associated with building a structure from the ground floor up, youâll save money. Youâll also be able to service clients quicker since our structures can be erected faster and for less money than virtually any other solution on the market. <strong>Portable</strong> â Despite the fabric structureâs large size, if you needed to move it you could because it doesnât require a foundation.Â  For the ultimate in portability we can configure your structure to be wheel-mounted and crane liftable.Â Â  You will find our wheel mounted and crane liftable structures at marinas and shipyards all over the world.  <strong>Weatherproof</strong> â Fabric structures can withstand 75 to 120 MPH wind load ratings. They can also handle 12 to 40 pounds/Sq.ft. of snow or live load ratings.  <strong>Clearspan</strong> â Because there are no internal pillars or posts holding the structure up, a fabric structure provides more space per square foot. Clearspans range from 12 feet wide to 166 feet wide, by virtually any length. <strong>Quick Installation</strong> â Our structures can be assembled and erected faster than just about any other type of structure on the market with a minimum amount of heavy equipment.Â  In fact most of the smaller (28âW and smaller) Fabric Structures can be assembled with very little to no heavy equipment. Â For most medium sized (32âW â 96âW) you a telescoping fork lift and scissor lifts are recommended.Â  Only the very largest fabric structures 96âW â 166âW) require a crane but even then our structures are much quicker to assemble and erect than brick-and-mortar construction.  <strong>Permanent</strong> â Although fabric structures are perfect for temporary structures, they are also used as permanent structures in airports, marinas, warehousing, construction sites, manufacturing and other industries due to their durability, low-cost and quick and easy assembly.
<p><strong>Perfect Temporary Shelter Solution for Commercial Industries</strong></p>
<p>Fabric structures offer are clearspan, weatherproof, durable and portable. That makes them perfect for a wide range of commercial industries including:</p>
<p> <strong>Marine Painting and Sandblasting Containment</strong> âSince the fabric is durable, marine painting and sandblasting can be done year round. Also, the transparency of the fabric provides excellent natural light, allowing work to be done during daylight hours without a need for electrical lights. <strong>Marine Industry</strong> â Fabric structures can be wheel-mountable, which is perfect for marinas that service large ships or boats which needs to move structures around as the projects finish and new ones get started. <strong>Boat slip covers</strong> â Perfect for both personal and business-owned boats, fabric structures can house one large boat to several boats at a public or private marinas. The clearspan allows boat slips more room per boat. <strong>Warehousing and Storage</strong> â A fabric warehouse is perfect as a temporary warehouse. From construction equipment to industrial products, a fabric structure will provide more space per square foot, costing the company less for warehousing and storage and when the project or special need is completed our structure can be moved to the next job site or sold. <strong>Construction</strong> â Almost all construction sites require temporary structures, our fabric structures are the perfect solution for storing heavy equipment, building materials and other items. Once the construction is over, the fabric structure can be disassembled and reassembled at the next location. <strong>Concrete Curing </strong>â When concrete is poured for a large construction site, it has to be covered from the elements so it can properly cure. A fabric structure is the perfect weatherproof solution, keeping the concrete safe from harsh weather no matter where the site is located<strong>.</strong> <strong>Aircraft Hangars</strong> â From small private airports to NASA, fabric structures are the perfect solution for aircraft hangars. They can be used temporarily or permanently, depending on your needs. <strong>Sports and Recreation</strong> â Many cities canât afford to budget for a brick-and-mortar or metal building at sports and recreation parks, but they can afford a fabric structure. They are the perfect solution for sports arenas and recreation centers.
<p><strong>Exhibition</strong> â Portability is key for fabric structures used as exhibition halls at fairs, parks, universities, race tracks and other venues. They can be left up year round or erected as a temporary structure.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>World War I was the dawning of services aviation. The aircraft of this war were bi-planes (two-winged) which were largely constructed of frivolous wood, and wire to secure and stabilize the wings. Today, the services aircraft enthusiast can hold World War I develop airplane replicas of virtually each design with the intention of participated in this war.</p>
<p>World War I develop airplanes can be fun to build, especially from a historical perspective. If you are taking into account building a World War I smooth it is initially suggested with the intention of you sort out approximately investigate and in rank gathering former to building your develop. This in rank can be of tremendous help in building a historical replica of your WW1 develop, not to not remember being a source of inspiration and creativity.</p>
<p>Because the first World War I airplanes were constructed of primarily wood and wire many World War I develop airplane manufactures yield their World War I develop airplane kits to imitate this construction. Some kits sort out imitate this construction in plastic, but generally are constructed from go to meet your maker cast balsa wood.</p>
<p>After purchasing your kit and gathering the historical in rank you will aspire to preview the kit&#8217;s directions. This will help you not single in the real building period, but will furthermore help you make an perception of how you will apply your historical investigate to your kit, as here are uncommon versions and styles of World War I services aircraft. The &#8220;Red Baron&#8221; is a skilled model.</p>
<p>Also, former to building your WW1 develop smooth you&#8217;ll aspire to get on to guaranteed with the intention of you be inflicted with the appropriate bring about interval and tools to build it. Your bring about interval, to include lighting, must be of such to allow you to bring about comfortably. And your tool box must include all the de rigueur tools to go all building period efficiently.</p>
<p>The generally valuable business in building your World War I develop airplane is to be inflicted with fun responsibility it. Model building is a hobby and as such must be fun to sort out</p>

<p>At the dawn of aviation, the Wright brothers recorded a bird strike that interfered with their early flights. More recently, Hanscom Field in Bedford Massachusetts had roughly 5,000 starlings roosting in their hangar. Clinton Air Force Base in Oklahoma had six hangars with 200-300 house sparrows in each hangar. Lockbourne Air Base in Ohio had 2,000 to 3,000 house sparrows between three hangars with an additional 2,000-3,000 starlings. Wright-Patterson Field had pigeons in their propeller testing area. Selfridge Air Force Base in Michigan suffered from a sparrow invasion. The list goes on and on. Pest birds, it seems, love to hang out in hangers.</p>
<p>Birds entering various openings within aircraft hangars, roost in the I-beams high inside these structures. The Air Force says that the accumulation of droppings, feathers, and other matter poses a big problem. Bird droppings, accumulating on the aluminum skin of airplanes, can corrode the metal and eventually weaken the structure itself. Another concern is that if droppings, feathers, and other matter get into the engines, critically important parts must be cleaned as they could stall an engine during flight. Cleaning an aircraft engine is very expensive and time consuming.</p>
<p>So how does one bird proof these aviation areas? In the past, bird proofing aircraft and the facilities that housed and repaired them was a hit or miss proposition. Toxicants like strychnine-treated grain were used to inhumanely eliminate pest birds—particularly pigeons. Pellet guns were also used. As was high-pressure air or water to discourage roosting.</p>
<p>Today, bird-proofing methods vary from scaring devices, repellents and screening to mists and sonic systems. To bird proof large areas, bird netting creates an impenetrable barrier for most birds. Some heavy-duty bird netting is made of polyethylene fabric and is UV stabilized, flame resistant and rot and waterproof. Netting comes in various mesh sizes to deter a wide range of birds. To seal out small openings, there&#8217;s copper mesh cloth. Available  in rolls, it&#8217;s easily stuffed into cracks or holes to let air circulate but keep birds out.</p>
<p>Ideal for hangers, <a rel="nofollow" onclick="javascript:pageTracker._trackPageview('/outgoing/article_exit_link');" href="http://www.birdbgone.com">bird-misting systems</a> are both humane and effective. These bird proofing systems work by releasing an ultra fine mist that pest birds can&#8217;t see and prefer not to be around. The mist typically employs a chemical called methyl anthranilate, a grape extract that naturally occurs in concord grapes. The extract has been widely used for decades to deter a wide variety of pest birds including, sparrows, pigeons, starlings, crows, blackbirds and geese.  Yet it&#8217;s safe for people, pets, plants and birds.</p>
<p>Another useful bird proofing method is the electric-track bird repeller. Ideal for ledges, rooftops, and flat or curved surfaces, these low-profile electrified tracks deliver a non-lethal electric shock that discourages birds from landing or feeding. Some manufacturers offer a flow-through design to keep water from damming up on rooftops and other surfaces.</p>
<p><a rel="nofollow" onclick="javascript:pageTracker._trackPageview('/outgoing/article_exit_link');" href="http://www.birdbgone.com">Bird proofing</a> measures&#8211;bird netting, bird repellents, bird spikes and electric shock systems&#8211;can be found on our nation&#8217;s Capitol and White House, as well as on major civil and military facilities worldwide. Bird spikes are ideal for pigeons and other large birds. Some bird spikes are made of strong, rigid unbreakable polycarbonate, others have stainless steel spikes. A cousin to the bird spike is the bird spider. The spider arms wave with the breeze, keeping wild birds from landing. Most come in a variety of diameters and install easily. And although they appear menacing, spikes and spiders won&#8217;t harm birds.</p>
<p>Many government buildings tend to be older with established pest bird populations. Failure to bird proof these buildings and offices can lead to a number of problems. The acid secretion produced by the fungi that live in bird droppings can discolor paint and other surfaces. Pest bird nests and droppings can get sucked into ducts, grilles and vents, blocking air conditioning and heating units. In these tough times with governments under the budget knife, cleaning and restoring buildings damaged by pest birds is one expense many governments can do without.</p>
<p>The bird slope is a simple solution ideal for many government buildings. Suitable for eaves, ledges, beams and other 90-degree areas where pest birds tend to nest and roost, the angled, slippery PVC panels cause pest birds to simply slide off when they try to land. For an even easier-to-install solution, there&#8217;s bird gel. Birds hate this stuff because it creates a sticky surface that birds find very annoying to land in. It&#8217;s safe for birds (except swallows) and a great way to keep birds from landing on ledges, I-beams, parapet walls, conduit, pipes, and most flat or curved surfaces.</p>
<p>At public parks, benches, playground equipment, statues, entry monuments and other structures can be rendered unsightly and eventually ruined by pest birds. There&#8217;s also the health hazard pest birds pose to park visitors. Children placing their hands on bird droppings left on park bench armrests or playground equipment can be at risk, since many fail to wash their hands before snacking at the park. These droppings have been known to carry and transmit any of 60 known diseases. Sparrows and Feral Pigeons can carry bacteria causing Salmonellosis. Feral Pigeons carry Ornithosis&#8211;similar to viral pneumonia. If that&#8217;s not bad enough, birds, bird droppings and their nesting fodder contain insects and mites, which can cause even more damage.</p>
<p>One effective and inexpensive way to bird proof parks is through the use of visual deterrents. Iridescent reflective foil or flash tape can be easily strung around lampposts and turned into pennants. Inflatable balloons are another economical visual scare device. Their lifelike reflective predator eyes and markings drive birds away by creating an “Optical Distraction Zone.”</p>
<p>Keep our country beautiful and safe, and do it humanely by bird proofing.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>With these reasons you can draw a conclusion that those who buy electric RC Helicopter want convenience more than real experience. There are those who prefer to build model RC Helicopter by themselves to add to their ever-growing collection. Are RC Helicopters much harder than planes? RC Helicopters are more complicated to fly than airplanes however it is possible to learn to fly a RC Helicopter by yourself which is next to impossible for an rc airplane because with a RC Helicopter you can fly a little bit 2 inches off the ground and land safely. RC Planes are nice in that they&#8217;re much more relaxing to fly than a RC Helicopter but the coordination you learn from flying RC planes is not so useful when flying RC Helicopters that it warrants buying a whole airplane first. For those who have heard this for the first time you should realize that you only require standard parts from an auto parts and hardware store to create a helicopter (that can really fly).  One of the most thrilling experiences you can have is to fly an aircraft on your own. That is. </p>
<p>&#13;</p>
<p> Do not let the helicopter hit you! This is a habit you definitely want to avoid. Gas RC Helicopter is relatively larger than other type of RC Helicopters while electric RC Helicopter can be categorized into 3 sizes- that is electric mini and micro. One last reason is that gas RC Helicopter is the best thing you get before you move to ultralight helicopter. Thus one you have a gas RC Helicopter you don&#8217;t have to require yourself to upgrade unlike if you have an electric RC Helicopter.  See <a rel="nofollow" onclick="javascript:pageTracker._trackPageview('/outgoing/article_exit_link');" href="http://www.rchelicoptersguide.info/mini-micro-mosquito-rc-helicopter/micro-helicopter-dragonfly.php">micro helicopter dragonfly</a>.  </p>
<p>&#13;</p>
<p>With a pre-built ARF (Almost Ready to Fly) kit like the Raptor you&#8217;re only a few hours from ready to hover when you get it in the box!. Practice turning the heli a little bit to the right and left. Get used to the perspective in real life. The sim experience only helps. Practice flying the heli out and back (tail in both ways) Practice a little side to side slow-flying. Wind conditions; the bigger the helicopter the more wind it can cope with. </p>
<p>&#13;</p>
<p>If you want to fly with the airplanes (which they tend not to like when you hover all over the runway) you will need AMA insurance. http://www.rchelicoptersguide.info/mini-micro-mosquito-rc-helicopter/micro-helicopter-dragonfly.php If you are planning to fly your RC Helicopter on open spaces then the electric RC Helicopter is your ideal size. On the other hand if you only prefer indoor flying then you can either choose the mini or the micro. </p>
<p>&#13;</p>
<p>These RC Helicopter parts can cost you a little under a thousand dollars if you know how to select good parts.In other words after you have bought and first flown your radio-controlled helicopter you might not be able to fly it again. The there is one thing that rc pilots are conscious about that is the closeness of the rc to the real helicopter. Gas RC Helicopter is powered by an engine that is ran by fuel.  </p>
<p>&#13;</p>
<p>Practice flying around backwards slowly. This is very difficult. Practice flying around backwards while inverted. Yikes. The Real McCoy. I suggest that you should wait to fly the real thing until you can confidently fly around in the simulator and land without crashing. You will be much better off in the event of an emergency and learn quicker too. Also see <a rel="nofollow" onclick="javascript:pageTracker._trackPageview('/outgoing/article_exit_link');" href="http://www.rchelicopterhobby.info/winner-rc-helicopter-parts/helicopter-rc-parts.php">helicopter rc parts</a>. Usually beginners tend to buy electric RC helicopter because it is much cheaper than gas rc&#8217;s. RC Helicopter simulators fun too. I like to push it to the limits and do all sorts of weird things I would never do for real.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Building radio controlled or remote control vehicles is a popular hobby that many persons indulge in. There are two methods of building a radio controlled car, boat, helicopter or airplane. One way is to purchase a kit that consists of all the parts of the vehicle. Assembling the various parts involves putting them together and gluing them into place. Beginners can use these kits to indulge in their hobbies. After successfully building a radio controlled vehicle from the kit, a person may want to construct a radio controlled vehicle from scratch. This would be the second method of building a radio controlled vehicle and you will need to find the precise plans for the construction as a first step. You may require to use wood, power tools, paints and glue to create a miniature model of the vehicle that looks as close as possible to the real one. </p>
<p>If you have a hobby of building radio controlled devices, you will be in constant need of the parts and components. At times, you may need to replace the tools or the wood in the middle of the building project, so it is better to have a vendor from whom you can purchase these items at short notice. However, there are many options to buy the components, either locally or by mail order.  With some experience in this area, most remote control device enthusiasts usually have a selected vendor whom they patronize often.</p>
<p>Your hobby of building radio controlled vehicles is more specialized as compared to other simple hobbies. Therefore, you may not easily find items that you require at the local craft stores. You may need to find a store specializing in remote control parts to supply you with the necessary items. However, if you require a quick substitute for wood, model glue or paint, you can get them at the local craft store. The local hobby stores may have some items that you can decide to make do with, or you may want to hold off and buy the specialized items that you require, later on. </p>
<p>To find specific items for radio controlled vehicles, you may have to look for specialty stores, online. Websites sell items suited for radio control vehicle project that you may be working on or, they may provide links to other sites dealing with them.  One advantage of purchasing online is that you will be able to get an idea of the product and the service of the supplier from the user reviews that the websites have. Other radio control hobbyists post their responses and experiences with these items which can help you make an informed decision. Whenever you decide to buy from the online stores, you need to first verify whether the site is reliable and whether they ship the items within the scheduled delivery time and whether the items have reached in good condition to their customers. </p>
<p>EBay sells a number of items that can be utilized for building a radio controlled device. You can procure components comparatively cheaper from EBay, provided you know what exactly you need. However, if you want the best items to use for your radio control creation, eBay may not be the best choice as it does not provide any user reviews. It is therefore advisable to research on a site geared towards radio controlled hobby items to find the best component you need.  Armed with this research you may then check out the availability of the component on eBay and get it at a cheaper price. </p>
<p>It is best to buy high quality components to build your radio controlled vehicle so that you need not replace the parts very often. Cheap and low quality components go out of order very soon and also affect the overall performance of the model. Thus, it pays to spend a little extra so that you do not have to keep on replacing the defective parts that often.</p>
