There seems to be loads now, and I've recently downloaded 15, 42, and 206 sqn stuff.
I personally think that this is a superb service at a very reasonable cost, especially for those that can't venture to London that often, or when they do can't get away with spending time in TNA!
Spending £3.36 per ORB month via TNA's service is a lot cheaper than £19.67 for a travelcard as well, providing you know the unit and month. Appendices are often worth downloading as you can get over 100 pages for the same money, assuming you know what to expect from appendices - normally pot luck
I'll try to remember to add those privately run ORB sites when In come across them.
No Amount Of Evidence Will Ever Persuade An Idiot (probably not Mark Twain)
The one that MM has put the link up to and which is being discussed on Key seems to be very good and I am amazed that it is free. The pages appear to be old photocopies, which may have been printed many years ago. The sheer cost of doing this as a private researcher at TNA now would be prohibitive but back in the day (ie pre-TNA) would have been a hell of a lot cheaper and I have done similar large-scale projects myself although not ORBs. Obviously nowadays one just takes a camera, assuming off course one can get there easily.
