![]() I don’t need to say a lot about this song – it does the talking, and then some, VERY LOUDLY! THIS IS THE STUFF OF WHICH ANTHEMS ARE MADE… An Emotional Fish, a radically alternative rock band signed to U2’s Mother Records in 1989, and lead by the avant-garde Gerard Whelan (aka Jerry Fish of Mudbug Club fame), exploded onto the charts scene in spectacular fashion in June 1990, with this next song. Next up is the big one – my Anthem of Anthems. Never released as a single – track 6 of the 1990 album Paradise in the Picturehouse This is one of the big songs of my gen, and is always sure to get a crowd to it’s feet. This song has everything thrown in, it’s a right rakish musical hotch-potch: not strictly rock, not totally agit, a bit right of alternative, a bit punky for indie, and all that with a touch of brass shoved in for luck. One of the most successful live acts of the 90’s, it’s only fitting that the video I’ve selected, is of a live performance from Electric Picnic ’08. Kicking off the 90’s, we have a very different type of band, and, a very electrifying song! The Stunning, an Irish rock band formed in 1987, have split many times over the years to work on other projects such as, The Saw Doctors, The Walls, even Riverdance, but, happily they are back touring again. You wanted her to have a happy ending….but will she bury the past? Musically it stood apart from everything else in the charts that year – the distinct vocals & overlapping harmonies, the melancholic strings, the looped 4-chord acoustic guitar riff and the bombastic bass drum.īut it was the lyrics that struck a chord with the listeners with their sorry tale of Mary, her abusive boyfriend and wasted life. From the Double Platinum selling album “Songs for the Tempted”, the Top 10 hit single “Mary” became one of the most played songs on national radio. Wrapping up the 80’s for us are a band from Northern Ireland who set the charts alight with this corker in 1989. A softly sung, gentle rock tune, it combines light piano chords with a stronger guitar sound for some punch, but the overall effect is an easy pleasant sound, and, a very memorable song that ticks all the right boxes. Lead vocals by Nick Kelly, you’ll probably pick up a touch of Ricky Ross and the Deacon Blue’s here – the two have often been compared. First up is a particular favourite of mine, from a band that came on the scene in the Mid-80’s – The Fat Lady Sings. Nearing the end of the 80’s now, we have two of the most of the enduring rock / indie songs. It’s only Christmas, when this has started to get airplay on national radio. “Fairytale in New York” is the musical signal that our festive period has begun. ![]() Both give the song the emotional quality it deserves without falling into soppy sentimentalism. ![]() The vocals & lyrics, however, might be a tad different to what you’re expecting!īehold, the Irish number one Christmas song, of all time, A song tinged with sadness, (even moreso since McColl’s untimely death) it is held with fond affection by both the Irish and home and the diaspora in America.Ī tale of love and disappointment, of faded dreams and jaded hopes, the fag-hag Mc Gowan vocal compliments the richness of Kirsty McColl’s warm yet edgy tone. If lilting balladesque soft pop is what conjures up images of Ireland, then musically, the next offering will be right up your street. ![]() We finished off Anthems P1 with the wonderful Dubliners “collabing” with The Pogues: so for the sake of continuity, we are kicking off P2 with the Pogue-ish scoundrels duetting with yet another big name from the 80’s the late, great, Kirsty McColl (yep, Kirsty “There’s a guy works down the chipshop swears he’s Elvis” McColl). ![]() ![]() It can get cool atop the roofless double-decker buses, especially in the evening.ĭo bring sunscreen and/or a hat on warm, sunny days as you are quite exposed to sunlight.ĭon’t expect to come back with the same hairdo you left with: it can get windy on top of the buses.ĭo get to the bus’s Dorchester Square departure point early-ish.

Buy the product, spray it on the car, wipe it off. When it comes to waterless car washes, there are three basic choices: ready-to-use (RU), concentrate, and no-rinse formulas. Natural carnauba wax or synthetic polymers are also added to leave a shine as you wipe. Lubricants in the car wash prevent particles from leaving any scratches. The dirt is suspended in the liquid, and as you wipe the liquid off you leave a clean car behind. The chemicals get under the dirt and lift it away. The concept is a relatively simple one: you spray the product onto the vehicle’s bodywork. And it can be used if you live in an area that has restrictions on water use. ![]() It’s also a product that’s easy to take with you, so you can clean your car wherever it’s convenient. If you use a waterless car wash, you’re paying no more for the cleaning product itself, but you can save money on your water bill and benefit the environment. If you usually wash your car with a garden hose, you could waste upwards of 50 gallons of water in as little as ten minutes! In some places, it’s gone up 60% in the last four years alone.

Key considerations Why use a waterless car wash?Īccording to independent sources, the average water bill across the US has risen 54% since 2010. Waterless car wash is perfect for events and shows, allowing you to quickly clean the travel dirt off your vehicle when you arrive. ![]() ![]() I'd like to hear what others have done to address this issue. I assume the force would be applied primarily to the front of the forward hinge, so the canopy would come off in a peeling motion (rather than a lifting motion). Based on the initiation point, Seat Handles, Internal or External Canopy Jettison Handles, the Sequencer provides firing pulses to the EEDs to support canopy removal, ejection seat inertial reel activation (s) and ejection seat catapult firing (s). Unfortunately I don't know what sort of forces might be produced by a canopy that's unlatched and raised. The system is powered by 28V thermal batteries. The system is powered by 28V thermal batteries. (Or maybe use a Dremel cut-off disc to make a lengthwise cut in the loops of the existing hinges.) I'm planning to rig up test piano hinges to measure the forces needed to detach them, for both potential solutions. These might be weak enough to release the canopy. Replace the continuous piano hinges with the type that is made from flanges bent to form the tubes for the wire. The two cotter pins would be connected with a cord so I could pull them out with a single motion. Emergency Canopy Jettison Metal Sign 16inx12in Full color, UV (Ultraviolet ) printed for durability Pre-drilled holes for easy hanging Dimensions: 16 x 12. Note that the canopy internal emergency jettison handle does not open. I think I might retain one screw on each hinge and hold it in place with a cotter pin bent only enough to keep it in place. Pulling (dragging) this handle in the virtual cockpit will make the canopy invisible. Special Connector for the Canopy Jettison. This worries me a bit, as I don't want the canopy coming off accidentally. SteFly Canopy Flasher with green LEDs and black aluminum / SLS-printed housing Control box for automatic. Does anyone have specs for the appropriate rivets? I'd have to add washers to reduce the hole size, as pop rivets the same size as the -10 screws would be much too strong. ING Pulling the CANOPY JETTISON T handle other than straight out may cause the handle to jam. Does anyone have information from Giles on the recommended attachment devices? (Or from Van's?) I'm considering two approaches: 1. The construction manual I received with the plane doesn't cover the canopy. One G-200 I know of had the canopy come open in flight near VNE due to a latch pin guide failure. ![]() I've seen other planes (RV4, G202) with what look like pop rivets attaching the hinges, which are supposed to tear away when the canopy is unlatched and lifted. ![]() The piano hinges have continuous loops encircling the wire, which definitely will not break to release the canopy. My newly purchased G-200 has the canopy piano hinges screwed solidly to the airframe and canopy frame. Canopy Jettison Relocation Good Morning All, I recently saw an example of an RV-14 (Flight Chops) that had moved the canopy jettison handle to the left upper side of the panel. ![]() ![]() ![]() Its sweatproof design and IPX5-rated water resistance can withstand moisture and spills, complete with a breathable perforated headband and wipe-clean ear cushions.

The continuously fed tubular electrodes also allow for a higher production rate than solid wire or stick electrodes. This process, when used in similar settings, delivers welds with more consistent mechanical properties and fewer defects than MMA or MAG processes. This dual shield method is preferred for weldings thicker materials or welding out of position. ![]() The most commonly used mixture is 75% argon & 25% carbon dioxide. ![]() The most commonly used shielding gas is carbon dioxides or mixtures of Argon and carbon dioxide. Thus the process is informally known as ‘dual shield’ welding and was developed primarily for the welding of structural steels. The weld metal is also shielded from the formation of slag by melting flux. Shieldings gas was used protects the weld pool from oxidation and is usually provided externally from a high-pressure gas cylinder. Based on the shielding method, the FCAW process can be divided into two types One that uses an external shielding gas & one that relies entirely on the flux core itself to protect the weld area. It is similar to MAG welding, except that FCAW welding uses a hollow, tubular electrode filled with flux instead of a solids metal electrode. This arc is struck between the metal workpiece and the continuously fed tubular cord consumable filler wire, in which both the wire and the metal workpiece are joined together to form a weld joint.
