Ya, I was thinking of the radius setup and the length of the yard per the size of screen. Whereas true, I know of a Drive-In in this area that has a 85 ft wide screen in a 275 car yard. The radius isn't that all wide, yard plenty long enough and the back three rows....who watches movies clear back there anywhos... [Big Grin]

Six to eight scaffold sections high does not equal 88 meters.

(Re. Pearl Harbor)

Most likely a dropped decimal point - 8 point 8 meters high would come to 28ft 10ins approx., consistent with the photos and the quoted screen height of 50ft.

Claude,

Has the swap-meet been discontinued or is the movie venue just being squeezed in? When I lived there the swap-meet took up most of the first circle of parking. Guess it's worth a try though!
