  1. Yup! But those cannons have not been used in a hundred years+ ! Yves.
  2. Although the Quebec bridge is a very old bridge, it's just freakin huge! It was once considered the 8th wonder of the world. http://www.corrosion-doctors.org/Landmarks/Quebec.htm http://netrover.com/~capaigle/Ponts/ponta.html http://www.nationmaster.com/encyclopedia/Quebec-City http://collections.ic.gc.ca/heirloom_series/volume5/25-27.htm http://www.nationalgeographic.com/destinations/Quebec_City/Quebec_s_Fortified_Defenses.html http://www.geocities.com/don_peddie/que.htm Yves.
  3. I happen to share DNA with the designer of those bridges. D. James Nahikian CHICAGO You might want to consider using condoms. Ya never know. Yves.

James Nahikian CHICAGO Here's a few links about the building of the Quebec bridge, and of Quebec city. http://www.pontdequebec.com/page1pont.html http://www.mysteriesofcanada.com/Quebec/quebec_bridge_collapse.htm http://filebox.vt.edu/users/aschaeff/quebec/quebec.html The filebox.vt.edu link .....is very interesting........ The picture named "The Quebec bridge today, courtesy of Altavista.com" actually depicts the Jacques-Cartier bridge.... in Montreal ! http://www.nuclearfiles.org/redocuments/1943/430819-quebec.html Yves.
  5. Nah ! You won't need a handgun in Quebec City ! Yves.
  6. Yes, and don't forget that there's a King air DZ located only 10 miles away from downtown Quebec City. Just a 5 hour drive to Boston, and a seven hour drive to New York! Yves.
  7. Here's the the largest Cantilever bridge in the world. The second biggest Cantilever bridge is located in Scotland. Yves.
  8. Talking about the ferry... Here it is.
  9. Ok. So today i was playing a little with my new digital camera, and i took a few pictures of my neighborhood. The pictures are 2272 X 1712 pixels, so I had to resize the pictures to upload them. Who can tell the name of this city?

    Good luck to you Jim. You can do it.
  11. I was just wondering how they are doing there? Any news?
  12. And don't forget The ugly Ambassador, and the equally ugly Hornet ! Yves.
  13. Here's a pic I took of the Frankenotter while I was at Lake Wales. Yves.
  14. Hey guys, keep me a copy! Just ordered mine. Yves.
  15. Geez! you've discovered the first bug of SP2. Yves.
  16. I'm sorry to hear that. The Lake Wales DZ is a popular spot among the jumpers at my DZ. When the snow comes, we usually headed to Lake Wales, and spent the holidays there. I hope Betty will have the courage and support to rebuild this beautiful DZ. Yves.
  17. It think the PAC 750XL has a great potential, because of it's low operating cost/maintenance. For us skydivers, it means jump tickets prices staying at a reasonable level. Yves.

    It looks like the weather has not been perfect in Rantoul since the beginning of the WFFC, but according to the people i talked to, they're having a blast anyway! So far so good. Yves.
  19. I know there a PAC 750XL at the WFFC right now. I too was wondering what the jumpers who jumped the PAC at the WFFC think about the plane. Yves.

  21. And if your cypres opened your reserve, you'll have to add the cost of TWO cutters. Yves.
