The good news, NTRS is back online. The bad news, it's been horribly
gutted.

From above:

In addition, only 7% of the historical (but still
technically relevant) NACA collection remains online
(only about 1,000 of the roughly 14,000 that comprise
the NACA collection).

Of course, there are Chinese university servers which mirrored NTRS
before it went down, so this whole exercise is pointless political
posturing. :-P

So I guess I should refer to those severs until the missing NACA
documents are back?

Only in Washington does this make any sense....
