Thanks for the heads up. It's fixed for now.

Is the site still relevant today? Wouldn't the site as a whole not be better off with just the forum? Curious about your opinions!

Happy either way Bert, thanks for fixing it.

There is a need to be able to get to all that reference information, I don't see it anywhere else. Might benefit from a re-format I suppose?

well there's a lot of raw data there that the search engine cant find.

I went there to find the data for the winch leader chain, and the company who made it. unfortunately there's also a lot of dead links, I see all the forums are having trouble with a certain 3rd party photo site. and a ton of info is being lost. one reason I went to work on radionerds was to mirror data. so if one fly by nite site went down, maybe another would have it. as Gorden knows having to re research something just irks me to death.

and at this stage of the game, theres just not unmolested examples out there to go off of. and way to many guys "get theres" and drop out. or get tired of answering the same question over and over again. thats why a raw database for stuff not in the manuals is so important.

distribution is preservation

I dont think we planned on doing vehicles on radionerds, but maybe we should.

which perfectly illustrates the problem with the interweb.
