Damn, it really looks like it. I hope at least some of the files can still be found online with enough patience to browse through various forums or pages.

I think I got everything, but its 569 Mb.Sadly it's not.
Looks like none of the files in PDF format weren't saved on the web archive.
At least on my side, i can't fetch them.
..and i checked my local copy and the whole "spitfireperformance" is missing
started work to rebuild locally from "web archives", spit MK1 almost done.
Been so long i haven't used html, fun to spring again into it.

I think you do not have the whole stuff then...
"WWIIaircraftperformance", without the "spitfireperformance" part is 2.55Gig's on my drive.
At the moment, my "spitfireperformance" rebuild is 48Meg's and it's only the MK1 page with a sublink to the page "camparaison spit vs 109" included, but this one is not finished yet, there are more than 330 links on that page, crazy work to check them all ,a lot of links point to the same docs used on the mk1 page, but not all, so always need to check if the document already exist, otherwise download it from webarchive, adapt link to fit local html architecure (in all cases anyway), check link locally...
Otherwise, there is a possibility to get the PDF's on the webarchive, but you need to scroll through all the "records" of the page that have been saved on the webarchive, with little luck you'll find it somewhere. (or try using the direct link to the file , right click, copy link, paste in webarchive)
If the original webpage doesn't come back online within 2or 3 months, when i finished the "spitfireperformance" part of the website, i'll post it as back up.
Otherwise, do the modo's have Mr Mike Williams' email? if possible to check with him what's going on?

Yes, if you include the CFD analyses I've done of WWII aircraft, I probably have more than 10 Tb

The Original Page is UP again.
Redirecting my BackUp to the original Page.
Will add some docs on my page in the forthcoming weeks, need to think about the structure of the website for those documents.

It appears to be down again. I get the main menu but no working links from the nationality headings to the individual aircraft type files - they all return 404.

Was lurking on the forum
hmmm....
indeed, half of redirectories do not work.
No Wonder, the original code and structure are outdated, must be some issue with the hosting server.
Reactivated the back up for now (at .COM domain) , will check the following days if the .ORG is back to normal or not.
