The invention of GPS

Great if there’s only a few floors… most in my building was 3 flights. Or 4 to the terminal room next door in MechEng. But if you have 15/20 flights then it’s a little more like hard work.

So, I came here to read about the invention of GPS, however I have learnt about the Paternoster Lift thanks to Andy @G8CPZ and Youtube https://youtu.be/YgJBD1wf-YQ?si=cvcvLaBRZDTYLrtv

Until today I didn’t know of their existence, now the Paternoster Lift is on my must see list when I next return to Europe.

Thanks.

Our father lifts.

The nearest of thes lifts to VKs is one in Malaysia. There are over 200 in DL.

The name is the first two words of the Lord’s prayer, in Latin of course, and that I think tells you a lot about them. Brave people the Germans.

There should be an award for dragging a topic off topic.

My work here is done :slight_smile:
