After alot of hard work by Dan Johnson (dj51D), the WIX Archives are now in place. These are the posts from 2001-2004 that are from the old software before we switched to the current format. Dan has valiantly converted these from an out of date and unusable database into a useable (and once google crawls it) searchable format. You can check out the archive here: http://archive.warbirdinformationexchan ... ndex1.html

And if you find any issues with it please post it here. Comments and critiques are welcome as well.

Everyone give Dan a hand for his relentless pursuit of this project. I know I appreciate it!

Scott,

I agree with Dave, there is some great stuff in there and it brings back a few memories <sniff> <sniff> and possibly even a tear to the eye :cry: :wink:

Thanks to both Dan and Scott for making this happen

This is good stuff Scott. Thanks to all that made it happen.

Any chance a Google search box can been added just for these archives?

As there have been no complaints or problems noted with the archive, It is now officially open! I have added a link in the nav section.
