What a magnificent gesture Eric.

This moves me to think how well does pprune archive?

Over the years there must be some incredible information and or research data stored in these columns. I have seen other websites where they became plundered, or crashed and lost heaps of data.

I think PPrune has a lot more to offer than pretty much any other helicopter site, it would be nice to know that it is stored well and easily retrievable.

Since all of the material is given freely, so hopefully it would be available to descendants freely.

I see John Fay's name mentioned, I always reckoned his book was the best I ever read on the subject, got me through my exam at 98 1/2% anyway.
