Though I suppose PPRuNe is private, and subject to the interests of the owner, on the other hand, it exists as a source of valuable information because of the effort filled posts of many of us. Not only has GtE dissapeared, but along with him, a whole bunch of other (including my) posts.
What did
the rest of us do to deserve to be deleted too?
