Earle Cook produced two really fun scenarios, one bombing the Ruhr and the other was Battle of Britain from German view. What happened to them?

Somebody should give you an official answer, but using The Wayback Machine, I was able to get a picture of the modder's scenario listings from last September. Notice what he said about the incompatibility of his scenarios with the 2.6.7c update (red boxes). Plus, I checked: He has not been around this forum since December. My guess would be that a forum moderator took the posts down after investigating and possibly finding that the links no longer worked anyway.

Can they be made again? Sounds like a rare chance to experience the air war over Germany.

Well, once those links are taken down (or neglected) by the modder, there is no way to download and tinker with them of course. Etiquette demands that one would ask the modder's permission, anyway.
Here's a thought. If one of you were to PM
earlecook and ask him to post links to his scenarios here, perhaps he would give us permission to work on them and try to update them as needed.
When you send somebody a PM through the forum, it usually also sends a message to his private e-mail address. That may get his attention and inspire him to either "will" us his scenarios or maybe even update them himself.
