RE: Visit to U-505

<HTML>Hi Steve and Capt. Lane,

I have heard that they actually ran the U-505 engines for a couple of seconds last year. Can anyone confirm this? Must have been great if it happened!

By the way, Captain is an appropriate designation for Mr. Lane as he is an airline captain. I\'m a pilot myself and after the amount of hours Mr. Lane\'s probably flown, the term \"captain\" may very well be appropriate :-)

Best wishes to you both,

Fin</HTML>
