Soda's Aircraft Evaluations

[KrzyIvan]

I noticed  "Soda's Aircraft Evaluations" website has been retired.

Does anyone know anything about this?

If it involves donations to get it back up, I would like to help.

If reviving the site isn't a option; would  anyone like to share any printed/saved the pages?

Thats a shame 

While a bit old and out dated it had some great info on the planes it did cover.

Gonzo's comparison page is still available with just hard facts, no write ups. http://gonzoville.com/ahcharts/index.php


If anyone knows/can contact soda the information is still available to him. All he has to do is login and he can retrieve it, or give someone else the login info to get the info if he doesn't want to bother with it.

Gonzo's still needs up date with new planes added......and .50 cals.

Isn't there an internet archived pages history service?  Something like that where you can still find old pages?

The wayback machine, but I tried it and it is blocked.

This was one of my favorite go to sites my first few years learning the game.  It will be missed if it is gone.

Netaces.org was another valuable info site I was sorry to see go.

the actual pages are cached...you might want to scrape them soon if you want to save them. I don't know how long they've been cached or how long they stay.

http://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:u8NubCstFFwJ:members.shaw.ca/soda_p/F4U1D.htm+&cd=2&hl=en&ct=clnk&gl=us

the format for searching looks like "members.shaw.ca/soda_p/B24J.htm"

so you'd google search that format with the planes you want hoping to get a match and then choose cached.

unfortunately it doesn't seem to be cached at an index so someone could just go through the planes.

"members.shaw.ca/soda_p/models.htm"

good luck!


OR actually just call him and ask?

I will let Soda know that people are still looking at his pages.

I was running a K4 today and someone asked me the differences between the Bfs. Where do I start?

I will let Soda know that people are still looking at his pages.

That would be nice of you, if you could and don't mind getting in touch with Soda, for the AH community, Pongo, Sir?

Soda had just started to update and revamp his entire website back during/right after the switch over to Aces High 2, if my memory is correct..... HTC had just added some new planes as well as adding some new models of some of the existing plane set....

 
BulletHead's write-ups were some good stuff to have/read, also.....

I have his manual.  Can't figure out how to attach it here.  Educate me, or send me an e-mail, and I'll mail it along.

  Hitech and Skuzzy, is this something you could host on your servers?

[Mister Fork]

I'll email Soda and ask if he can zip up his files and I'll find a place to host them.

You may be able to attach it in the screen shots forum. If not how big is the file?
