Aeroguro,

Looks like your plea for "Flat Top" input sank without trace so to speak. There must be some good Navy stories out there. Heard a good one from my American relatives. Happened a couple of years ago at an Open Day for a particular Nuclear sub. Certain number of friends and relatives were invited for a dive. 10 mins into the dive things started to go wrong. Somehow they got themselves lost in a busy shipping lane. They were under for almost 2 hrs until whatever problem they had was sorted out. My relatives thought it was part of the show until they were informed by their son that things had got a bit hairy. I wouldn't have thought it were possible with all the sofisticated equipment on board, but I was assured it did happen.
