Catalogue is not ready and some showcases have to be completed and I have to work on the speech for the opening. So please take over.

      Regards

    3. Hello

      here we go again

      I was born in Dec. 1916 and died 1980 in Nizhny Novgorod. I created some high speed ships with a passenger capacity of up to 150 pers. and a speed up to 100 km/h.

      For a certain project I was supported by Mr. Ustinov. In 1980 something went wrong and Mr. Sokolov stopped the program.

      Questions:

      1.What was the Project?

      2.What was the length of the Item we have built in 1972 and were is it now?

      3. Why was it not possible to detect the item by radar?

      Easy to answer

      regards

      Frank :cheers::cheers:

    4. Hello

      Sept 8 1970

      Murmansk

      BP 1227 (Apollo Capsule for training purposes

      had been lost during training in Bay of Biscaye (Stupid i..) found by a soviet trawler

      Ship: Ice breaker Southwind which has been transferred to SU on 25th March 194(name Kapitan Belousov) and has been given back to US five years later

      under name Atka until 31. Oct. 1966 and served in Coast Guard under old name Southwind

      The capsule is now in the city of Grand Rapids as a timecapsule to be opened in 2076.( You are all invited to the opening)

      For the Soviets it was no Problem to give back the capsule because it was empty

      regards

      Frank

      and back to work :Cat-Scratch:

    5. Hello Marc,

      I think it is not your mistake if nobody can answer the question..

      Your answers are very clear.

      What happened to the vessel? First Idea is. Museum because famous ships are often used as a memorial or museum.

      What was the name of the vessel ? It must be well known.

      Same with the captain.

      The ship must have got something special.

      Unfortunately I am under the control of my new boss so I cannot use the internet very much.

      If I would use our library for naval topics the boss will ask stupid Questions because my job is dealing with tanks.

      at the moment.

      I think that we are not reading the questions properly and we are not using our brain enough.

      Perhaps you should ask another question without giving the answer for this one. So anybody can try to answer the question

      about the vessel. (without having the right to ask a new one).

      regards

      Frank :cheers:

    7. Hello,

      a man thought:" These Soviets make me angry. We are their best friends but they prefer to take someone from Chechoslovakia and Poland to fly into space.

      Now we will give them something as a gift. It will cost us 82.000.000 marks but we can go into space before the other Germans."

      What was the gift ?

      Name(s) of the usesd vehicle(s) and passengers

      How long did the trip take from lift off to the hard landing (Bonus: d , hrs, min ,sec,) :rolleyes:

      Good luck

      regards

      Frank :cheers:
