Rare archive colour footage of the Royal Aeronautical Society’s centenary Garden Party held on 9 July 1966 at the Hawker Siddeley Aerodrome, Woodford. The period film shows a fly-in of private aircraft, the crowds and static line as well as an air display including the Avro Vulcan, Westland Whirlwind, Supermarine Spitfire, de Haviland Mosquito, Piper PA-E23-250 Aztec, Avro 504K, RAF Falcons parachute team and the famous Red Arrows team, flying Folland Gnats in only their second-ever display season. Founded in 1866, the Royal Aeronautical Society – the world’s only professional body dedicated to the entire aerospace community – will celebrate its 150th birthday in 2016.

The Chicago Colossal Jam is an annual event held by Aero Chicago Parkour. Once a year, Aero invites all traceurs from around the nation, west, midwest, and east, to come out to the city for a weekend full of Parkour and Freerunning training. I was not able to attend last year’s, nor was a proper video made, so I decided to make sure I was free for this year’s jam; which was held from July 17th – 19th. This video documents Saturday’s session, on July 18th. The traceurs started off at the UIC campus, moved down to the Vietnam Memorial on State and Wacker, and finally ended up on Ohio Street Beach. All in all, approx 8+ hours of jamming on one day. I want to give a big thanks and shoutout to Ryan Cousins and Michael Zernow for hosting the event, and to every traceur coming out to Chicago to jam along with everyone. Thanks again everyone, and I hope the video does the jam justice! Enjoy!

www.tomorrowsgarden.net In this video I show how to take a 400 Watt HID Metal Halide Warehouse light fixture and convert it to a grow light that you can you in your home. The same method can be used for high pressure sodium fixtures. These are verticle fixtures but can be converted to horizontal. I bought the fixture, bulb and new cord for $33.50 USD. I show where to look to find a deal like this. Here is the link for part 2: www.youtube.com
