Affordable Flying: Building an Airplane for Less than $6,500
Tim Buttles, EAA 183981, of Ogdensburg, WI, wanted to fly and save money, so he built a two-place airplane for less than $6,500. We took a good look at it at #OSH08, and the story still inspires us today.
Helsinki, City Tour - Finland 4K Travel Channel
Helsinki is the capital of independent Finland, since 1917. Before it was under the Swedish and Russian rule. The capital region has a population of approximately 1.4 million inhabitants, which is about one-quarter of the population of Finland. The second day of our stay, we choose a Hop-on Hop-off bus for a Helsinki City Tour. We get on the bus at Aleksanterinkatu and drive to the Senate Square. After we have passed the South Harbor, from where the ferries leave for Stockholm, we continue to the West Harbor.
From here, the big cruise ships and the ferries sail to Estonia. Before this, we pass the marina in Merisatama and Cafe Ursula. In Eira, there is a small bathing beach, one of the few in the urban area.
Past the Saluhall, where a secondhand market takes place, we reach the temple mountain with the Temppeliaukio church. It is one also known as rock church. The church was carved 5 to 8 meters into the rock. With the copper domed roof, it reaches a height of 13 m. From the outside, it is hardly recognizable. You only see the rock hill. The architects Timo and Tuomo Suomalainen built the church in 1969.
We continue to the Sibelius Monument. Johan Julius Christian Sibelius was one of the most important Finnish composers. He lived in Helsinki from 1865 to 1957. His popularity reaches far to Berlin, Vienna and New York. The monument, created by Eila Hiltunen in 1967, symbolizes an organ.
We take a walk to the next place of interest, the Olympic stadium. Built between 1934 and 1938, it should serve for the Olympics in 1940, which was canceled due to World War II. The tower is 72.71 m high. This corresponds exactly to the distance of the Olympic gold-winning throw of the Finnish javelin thrower Matti Järvinen, in 1932. From 2016, the stadium will be completely renovated and reopened in 2019.
Once again we choose the bus and drive to the Finnish National Museum. The Parliament building is just a few meters away. But at the time of our visit, it is behind a printed protective covering. On the opposite site is the Musiikkitalo (House of Music), a concert hall that is open, so we can take a look. We leave the building on the other side and reach a large square.

Helsinki ist seit 1917 die Hauptstadt des unabhängigen Finnlands. Vorher war es unter schwedischer und russischer Herrschaft. Die Hauptstadtregion hat eine Einwohnerzahl von ca. 1,4 Millionen Einwohnern, was ungefähr einem Viertel der Bevölkerung Finnlands entspricht.
Am zweiten Tag unseres Aufenthalts wählen wir einen Hop-On – Hop-Off Bus für eine City Tour in Helsinki. Wir steigen in der Aleksanterinkatu zu und fahren zunächst zum Senatsplatz. Nachdem wir den Südhafen, von wo aus die Fähren nach Stockholm abfahren, passiert haben, geht es weiter zum Westhafen.
Hier legen die großen Kreuzfahrtschiffe und die Fähren nach Estland an. Davor passieren wir den Sportboothafen in Merisatama und das Cafe Ursula. In Eira gibt es einen kleinen Badestrand, einen der wenigen im Stadtgebiet.
Vorbei an der Saluhall, vor der gerade ein Trödelmarkt stattfindet, erreichen wir den Tempelberg mit der Temppeliaukio-Kirche, die auch unter dem Namen Felsenkirche bekannt ist. Die Kirche wurde 5 bis 8m in den Fels gehauen und erreicht mit dem kupfernen Kuppeldach eine Höhe von 13m. Von außen ist sie kaum erkennbar. Es ist fast nur die Felsenanhöhe zu sehen. Die Kirche wurde 1969 von den Architekten Timo und Tuomo Suomalainen gebaut.
Wir fahren weiter zum Sibelius-Denkmal. Johan Julius Christian Sibelius war einer der bedeutendsten finnischen Komponisten, der von 1865 bis 1957 in Helsinki lebte. Sein Bekanntheitsgrad reicht weit bis Berlin, Wien und New York. Das Denkmal symbolisiert eine Orgel und wurde 1967 von Eila Hiltunen geschaffen.
Das nächste Teilstück bis zum Olympiastadion gehen wir zu Fuß. Es wurde 1934 bis 1938 erbaut und sollte für die Olympiade 1940 dienen, die aber wegen des 2. Weltkrieges ausfiel. Der Turm ist 72,71 m hoch, was genau der Wurfweite des finnischen Speerwurf-Olympiasiegers Matti Järvinen von 1932 entsprach. Ab 2016 wird das Stadion komplett renoviert und soll 2019 wieder eröffnet werden.
Noch einmal wählen wir den Bus und fahren bis zum Finnischen Nationalmuseum. Von hier aus sind es nur wenige Meter bis zum Parlamentsgebäude, das sich aber hinter einer bedruckten Schutzverkleidung befindet. Gegenüber ist das Musiikkitalo (Haus der Musik), ein Konzerthaus, das auch geöffnet ist, sodass wir einen Blick hineinwerfen können. Verlässt man das Gebäude auf der anderen Seite befindet man sich auf einem großen Platz.

Places to see in ( Littlehampton - UK )
Littlehampton is a seaside resort and pleasure harbour, and the most populous civil parish in the Arun District of West Sussex, England. Littlehampton lies on the English Channel on the eastern bank of the mouth of the River Arun. Littlehampton is 51.5 miles (83 km) south south-west of London, 19 miles (31 km) west of Brighton and 10 miles (16 km) east of the county town of Chichester.
Littlehampton is on the A259, though this bypasses most of the town. Littlehampton is connected to the A27 south coast trunk road by the A284, which also provides the main north-south route out of the town and links to the A29 and A24. The A27 also later links with the M27. The A280 also links Littlehampton to the A24 and is a main route from the north-east.
Littlehampton is served by three railway stations, Littlehampton railway station, Angmering railway station and Ford railway station. Trains services from Littlehampton railway station are provided by Southern and occasionally First Great Western, with direct services to Brighton, London Victoria, Gatwick Airport, East Croydon, Bognor Regis, Chichester, Portsmouth and Southampton.
The Littlehampton Ferry, is a ferry linking the east & west parts of the River Arun together. The Ferry operates from 31 March – 30 September between 10am & 5pm. The Ferry Company also provide harbour tours on the hour.
Littlehampton's port is based around the River Arun, which opens onto the English Channel. A small stretch of this, 5 miles out to sea and 6 miles wide, is locally known as the Littlehampton Channel. Littlehampton started as a fishing port but now is a thriving port for thousands of leisure craft which visit from all over the UK and Europe. In 2009, use of leisure craft at Littlehampton rose to the extent that at least 200 more moorings were required. Littlehampton is also a commercial port, handling around 50–60 ships a year from Ireland, the Netherlands, Germany, Belgium and France with cargo including marine aggregates, stone, marble chippings and timber.
The East Beach Cafe, designed by Heatherwick Studio, opened on the seafront of Littlehampton's east beach in July 2007. Littlehampton is home to Britain's longest bench. The Look and Sea centre includes the Harbour Lights café and an observation tower.
Harbour Park is at the entrance of the River Arun with two restaurants, two arcades, a rollercoaster, log flume and other attractions. Norfolk Gardens, a multi-purpose outdoor site owned by Inspire Leisure, is further along the promenade.
Littlehampton harbour (see also Littlehampton Port above) is on the River Arun at the western side of the town, with yacht moorings. Also on the west bank of the river are Littlehampton Redoubt and Climping sand dunes.

Art Deco Museum, Things To Do, Moscow
In December, 2014, the first private Art Deco Museum in Russia opened in the former mansion of Imperial Mint on the Luzhnetskaya Embankment. The founder of the museum, Mkrtich Okroyan, is widely known in the world of art thanks to his participation in the Sotheby's exhibition in Paris for the 100th anniversary of Diaghilev's seasons and the exhibition at the Museum of Art Nouveau and Art Deco in Salamanca. Not to make profit but reflect his personal passion for Art Deco and especially to its architecture, Mr. Okroyan has been carefully gathering the masterpieces during over 20 years from various countries. At a rough estimate, the museum's collection of 900 sculptures made of ivory, marble and bronze, more than 500 items of furniture, and decorative arts is valued at $100 million. You will not meet at any Russian state museum the outstanding works, such as sculptures by Demetre Chiparus (famous figurines depicting dancers of Russian Ballet Seasons), Claire Colinet, Ferdinand Preiss or Bruno Zach, lacquered panels by Jean Dunand, consoles and lamps by Edgar Brandt, furniture by Paul Follot, Andre Arbus, Jules Lelue, Jacques-Emile Ruhlmann and others.
Art Deco Museum has become a perfect platform for educational programs for children and parents, and temporary expositions. Mkrtich Okroyan, the author of the book Art Deco Sculpture: From Root to Flourishing, has managed to gather a team of professionals, who have been leading wide range of educational and scientific-research activities over 10 years based on the museum's collection: expositions, lectures, seminars, master classes. Art Deco Museum plans to arrange a multimedia library, hold roundtables and conferences, involve actively students of Russian and European institutes of arts for studying and popularizing Art Deco style.
