I deal with RADON all day every day at work.

More information can be obtained from the National Radiological Protection Board, however in Northamptonshire we are a RADON hot spot. The Museum has been tested for RADON and we are below the action level. (I knows me onions on this). More info at http://www.nrpb.org.

RADON is ONLY harmful if above the action level, contained and not vented, hence the use of RADON sumps.

RADON is tasteless, invisible and NOT immediately harmful continued exposure can pose a risk if no proper ventilation and at high levels. Children are at greater risk, i believe due to their lesser bone density.

Hope that answers the point

Cheers then

hey wait a minute.. u mean that when I was there with u I had a good sniff of RADON too?? oh well.. :rolleyes:

..u can trust ben chaps, he sleeps with a Harvard panel over his head and they both glow in the dark 😀

Alex

they are guys, no questioning, and even when in doubt.. well dont play too much with them!

Alex

did they fill the A-10 cannon barrels with lead? I have somewhere a pic of me sticking a finger in it when it was on the ground and I still remember the feeling..

Alex

I hope my adfirmations were taken under the proper point of view: my thought is about doing all these operations under the maximum level of safety, expecially for such rare and historically valuable machine.
About the props, I know the original VDM were carved out of an aluminium block and that the technology to redo it today (assuming u have the original scaled drawings or a prop blade as template) is not THAT expensive (expecially if u r facing a Me109 restoration), but the point is how much cheaper is a composite repro?

Alex

great! Thanks Alex, but we want them BIGGER!!! 😀

Alex

…my “please guys give it a cut” post has disappeared too.. It would be kind if u mods, other than erasing, would drop a private message to explain the reason why, as a matter of politeness..

Alex
