Airfield Requirements

Learned contributors,
Can anyone point me to a web site that lists take off length and landing length required for classic aircraft E.G. DC-3, DC-4, B25, HU-16, PBY-5A, Beech 18 etc etc ? I am aware of variations due to temp, altitude etc just a rough guide is all that's required.
Thanks for your time and trouble, I've googled all sorts without sucess.
Be lucky
David

Thanks, my google never found anything like that. RIRO I guess.
That solves the DC3/C47 part of the puzzle.

Given that there was a DC 4 parked at Panshangar for many years, I would guess 1000 - 1200 metres.
