[303rd-Talk] 303rdBG.com Search feedback

[olivier arquin]

Hello Gary
I've played a little with the search engines on 
http://www.303rdbg.com/search.html by searching some info about mission 
241and must say I prefer Google. It came up with much more hits including 
the pdf file of the mission report.

Now that we're talking about the mission reports : I have noticed that there 
might be a tiny error in listing up the mission reports. I find mission 150 
between mission 145 and 146 ? I've added this part of the listing in the 
attachment.

Best Regards
Oliver
