This looks like a phenomenal primary source of information. Just reading up on it now--an ambitious project.

This looks amazing but it does not appear that they are available for downloading for free anymore. Am I missing something?

They are still available, links on the left hand side take you to the books, which can be downloaded as individual chapters.

Thanks for posting this, Hans. What an incredibly rich (and free!) resource. Looks like good airplane reading this week.
