I tried searching for Technical Reprints but the old links dont work (error 404).
Can anyone help me locate them?

Thanks but those are the links to Magazine back issues. The various technical articles were gathered together in a document called Technical Reprints, which grouped all the relevant posts together. Was that not held as a PDF?

Thanks mate. I should have thought of that.

There is so much wisdom in these articles, I wonder where it all went........

So true, unfortunately.

What has a seagull got to do with a decline in the number of good technical articles in the magazine?

[Philip Wardle]

"Corporate Seagull" - from Ken Blanchard's book Leadership and the One Minute Manager: "Seagull managers fly in, make a lot of noise, dump on everyone, then fly out." It was often quoted by long suffering middle managers in British industry when talking about short-termism in policies and directives from board level.

Thanks but I still don't see the relevance.

Thanks but I still don't see the relevance.

Really?

So in order to write a good technical article the author must have a good technical understanding or maybe even first hand knowledge from the 1970s. This club used to have a bunch of them but they all left, of their own accord, more or less at the same time. Remember Jack Shaft? There are a number of others too

Like you Chris, I have no idea why that would have happened

Maybe the club should start to recycle the old technical articles and republish them in the new glossy A4 magazine each month.

The cooling system study made for a very good read.
