Title: Website Archives?
Post by: Vermillion on December 17, 2003, 03:50:51 PM

Hey guys.

I remember a while back someone posted a link to a website where they kept copies/archives of old websites.  In fact, they had a copy of my old website from years ago.

I need some information from a website called

http://www.jet-engine.net/

which use to have some great information on jet engines, but which I haven't been able to access for the past week.

I was hoping that somewhere out there in the void there was a copy of that website.

Any ideas?

Try Google.

Put the words, jet engine and net. It'll be at the top of list... click the link that says "cached".

Didn't know you could do that. :)

Even with the cached version though, I'm not able to go down to the specifications pages or access the zip files that went with it.

So, what's the web site...or did you get what you needed off Google?

I was able to go thru google and find cached copies of the other pages in the site.  Unfortunately, it seems that google only caches the first 100k or so of a page, and the rest is gone.  And what I need is on the part that is missing.

I'm researching information on the Wright J65-W-20 jet engine that was installed in the A-4C Skyhawk.

Basically I'm looking for information such as the dry weight, the SFC, the compressor ratio, and some other things.
