Does anyone what happened to the Lostbombers.co.uk site?

I think you will find it was closed down because of the extent to which it relied on "RAF Bomber Command Losses" by Bill Chorley.

I believe the author of the site recently passed away. It was probably shut down because no one was paying for it any more.

Steve & Bill

Thank you the informaton on Lostbombers, it is much appreciated.

I remember it being a great site, very easy to use and carrying a great deal of information, and I am sorry to read that the founder has passed away.

I have looked to see if there is a similar example on line however, I have yet to locate one as yet.

Regards Richard.

Paul,

Please explain, as search in the first site gives nothing

I don't know if search in site works but the raw data may be archived

Put www.lostbombers.co.uk in the search field in the upper left hand corner, and it will return a page listing the points at which the requested file was archived; in this case between Jan 8, 2007 and Aug 5, 2014. The initial calendar shown is for 2014 (highlighted above). Click on a blue circle to see what the state of the webpage was on that date. To change the year, click on a year in the graph at the top of the page. You have to be careful in following links however, as I believe they link to "today's" file, not the "past" one being looked at.

Enjoy!

Frank.
