The problem of
disappearing labels has been solved and all sections of the site can again be browsed by category as usual. I'm happy to say that the solution incorporates my first non-trivial PHP script. I would like to use more PHP scripting in the future, but somehow I never seemed to have time to learn it properly. Maybe this is the starting point.
I'd also like to include a link tip so that this post is not only for technical geeks.
Spitfire Performance is a site worth checking by everyone interested in performance characteristics of the various Spitfire marks. The site is basically built around reports issued by A&AEE at Boscombe Down, RAE Farnborough and Air Fighting Development Unit. Each of these institutions preformed tests on various Spitfire marks as they appeared and during their first-line service. Besides an excessive array of charts, data sheets and scanned original documents, the Spitfire Performance site contains occasional commentary by squadron pilots. A comprehensive and highly recommended resource.
