A trolling line is a line with one or more baited hooks (or lures) towed behind a boat. The boat may tow many lines, often from outriggers ... or a single line hand-tended by a small crew in a dinghy ... The lines may be near the surface or some distance below the surface depending on where in the water column the fish aggregate, which can be adjusted by the amount of weight on each line, the length of the line and the towing speed. 3, record 1, English, - trolling%20line

Une ligne de traîne est une ligne à laquelle sont fixés un ou plusieurs hameçons appâtés(ou leurres) et qui est remorquée par un bateau. Le bateau peut tracter de nombreuses lignes, souvent à l'aide de tangons [...] ou une seule ligne tendue à la main par un petit équipage dans un canot pneumatique [...] Les lignes peuvent être mouillées près de la surface ou à une certaine profondeur, en fonction de l'endroit de la colonne d’eau où se trouvent les poissons. Cela peut être ajusté par la quantité de lests disposés sur chaque ligne, la longueur des lignes et la vitesse de remorquage. 4, record 1, French, - ligne%20de%20tra%C3%AEne

Many pneumatic systems are mounted on barges which can be towed to a seagoing vessel to discharge the cargo midstream. These barge-mounted pneumatic systems are called floating elevators. In the floating elevator, once the grain passes through the rotating airlock, it is weighed before being discharged into a barge or smaller ship. 1, record 4, English, - floating%20elevator
Record number: 4, Textual support number: 1 OBS
Most floating elevators have four succion pipes with a total discharging capability of between 250 and 400 tonnes per hour. The main advantage of the floating elevator is its mobility. The main disadvantage is the time lost both in moving the elevator from ship to ship and moving the barges or smaller ships to the elevator. However, they are used extensively in Europe. 1, record 4, English, - floating%20elevator

Beaucoup de systèmes pneumatiques sont montés sur des chalands que l'on peut remorquer jusqu'aux bâtiments de haute mer qui ne peuvent pas accoster. Ces dispositifs sont appelés élévateurs flottants. Le grain, après être passé dans le sas pneumatique, est pesé et transbordé dans un chaland ou un bateau plus petit. 1, record 4, French, - %C3%A9l%C3%A9vateur%20flottant
Record number: 4, Textual support number: 1 OBS
La plupart des élévateurs flottants possèdent quatre conduits d’aspiration capables de décharger ensemble de 250 à 400 tonnes à l’heure. Leur grand avantage est la mobilité, leur principal inconvénient le temps de déplacement des chalands entre le bateau et le silo. Néanmoins, on les utilise beaucoup en Europe. 1, record 4, French, - %C3%A9l%C3%A9vateur%20flottant

Air-and Tension-Supported Roofs. Buildings with roofs and sidewalls held aloft by pressurized air continuously pumped into the interior have often been constructed at exhibitions and fairs. The application has also been extended to more permanent and elaborate structures, such as stadiums, covers for industrial parks and shopping malls, and office buildings. ... The concept of air-supported roofs ... is similar to that of a gas-filled balloon or an air cushion. 1, record 5, English, - air%2Dsupported%20roof
