We build an airplane...and burn it!

The mockup is 54' long and has a 40' wingspan. 35,000 pounds of structural steel was used in the fabrication. The installation was done in the snow in December and the initial burn was done before Christmas. For years to come, military firefighters will receive training using this mockup. Have a look at some photos on Page 2 of our gallery.Thanks to ABA Machine and Welding, R&W Metals of Brantford, Currie Heavy Towing and C. W. Smith Crane Service for helping us to make it happen.

We reinvent ourselves on the web!

Friday, December 21st, 2007
We reinvent ourselves on the web!We are pleased to have a new presence on the Internet with our new website. This site has a significant degree of functionality through the secure customer log-in area. We can transfer large amounts of data back and forth to our customers using secure FTP. This particularly helps us with large CAD files of automotive parts. We have also added SQL database capability which helps us track our automotive products on-line. Our customers can access this database at any time to find out the status of a particular piece of equipment. This is an exciting innovation on our part, and we have future plans for this technology.Our site uses the latest in Ajax, PHP, SQL, XHTML, and Javascript, and we would like to thank Ryan for his tireless work and patience in building the new site.
