Excellent time to invest in silver

There has never been a better time to invest in silver. As an investment product, silver is available in coin or ingot form. Ingots are pure bullion cast in the right size and shape. Coins have a currency value or are sometimes defined as ingots.

One of the reasons why it is a very good time to invest in silver is because world demand for this precious metal now exceeds annual production while above ground stockpiles of silver bullion are low, shrinking rapidly and approaching depletion.

The difference between gold and silver is that gold has always been an excellent investment. It is available in coin or ingot form. If you feel the urge to buy gold coin the place to go is the Monex Deposit company.

Focus on old aircrafts: The Fairchild C-82 Packet

Nost cargo planes before the famous C-82used by the military were stripped-out passenger planes.

Forty-four fully equipped paratroopers could be carried, or 24,000 pounds of cargo. The Packet was also the first plane to drop large equipment (such as trucks or tanks) with a parachute. The C-82 saw service during the Berlin Airlift and Korean Conflict. Length: 77 feet
Wingspan: 106 feet 6 inches
