  1. Hi Ken Two Logitech Track Balls (Marble Mouse USB), one for Your Lh and one for Your Rh hand ... can work wonders! I have used such a set-up for years ... and with great success :) Keep up the great work best fail-safe -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  2. Hi Ken No slave labour work... but the workers didnt have a choise... at that time there was a lot of unemployment, owing to the war... and if the workers refused to do the job ... then no unemployment relief ! ... or worser they had to go to Germany to take work ! To me all bunkers have a strange oppressive atmosphere, and I dont suffer from claustrophobia ...That constantly singing from the aircondition and the smell of dry air and dust! uff! Regarding the NATO bunker ... in Ravnstrup 1984: Oh! yes ...that was an event... One girl got over the "Nato" barbed wire fence, close to the bunker (by help of a rope ladder and travelling rugs).. promte she started to run as fast as she could ...outflanking some MP soldiers with dogs! in the general confusion ...8-10 more girls got over the fence... and run to the top of the now unprotected bunker...two more girls dig a hole with spades and got under the fence! The police couldn't get in and stop the girls... the main guard entrance was blocked by woman with banners... The police had to use an back entrance, to be honest they didn't show to act over-zealous! One athletic girl succeeded entering the communicating mast at the top of the bunker, attaching and unfurl their peace banner... The battle of the bunker was over 1-0 to the girls peace activist group Epilog: The trespassing girls got a mild fine... no one was hurt... it was mostly a great happening The Ravenstrup Peace Camp or "occupation" of the property (field) next to the bunker was abandoned (1985) a year later ... Then there was only five girl left and the winther was comming up Epilog Epilog: Ten year later (1994) the Girls was officially invited to visited the bunker, the Colonel and the Girls had a good time... no hard feelings, but still different opinions regarding the military budget ... and how the money else could be spent they all separated as good friends The rest is secret best fail-safe
  3. Hi Ken.... Just a little follow up I think the German build at least three of them, one in Holland (the Netherlands), one near Paris and probably one in Polan? And You are right such big bunkers couldnt be blown... they did a try ...and almost all windows( in a range of 20 km) cracked ! and no harm to the bunker! just one big "earthquake" best fail-safe

I have spent a lot of time there fixing fighters :yes: "The Free City" Christiania are still living and in good shape, but had been forced to follow Building and Fire regulations to make their "Free City" a safe place ...almost all Christiania's people had accepted this demand, in order to preserve Christiania "Anarchy" is damn hard to define but the Christiania had shown able to survive for more than 35 year, and that against all odds ...amazing! :yes : Most Dane are a "little bit" proud of The Christiania... especially as the "City" is known from abroad It was very nice to let me know :yes: best fail-safe :yes:

  9. Hi Kendo, Sorry no pictures or plans! ...but found this little piece of information... by "National Museum of Flight" Sopwith T.1 Cuckoo Mk.1 wings 1918 The first torpedo dropping aircraft capable of taking off and landing on an aircraft carrier deck, the Sopwith T.1 Cuckoo contributed a significant amount to the art of aerial torpedo warfare in the British forces. In 1918, the first Cuckoo built underwent service trials at East Fortune, and as a result was recommended for squadron service. From July that year, aircrews trained in the single-seat biplane for a daring attack on the German High Seas Fleet in their home port of Whilhelmshaven. Training took place off Belhaven Sands near Dunbar, there the Cuckoos would fire their torpedoes at targets towed by destroyers. By the time the Armistice was declared, the first torpedo squadron, No.185 had become operational in October and the aircraft carrier HMS Argus with it's load of Cuckoos was ready for action. No complete Cuckoo survives, the wing sections in the care of the museum are believed to be the largest existing components of this rare and unrecognised aeroplane. best fail-safe :yes: Link: National Museum of Flight
