| At random: The United States submarine USS TRITON was fitted with twin reactors and was considered the longest submarine ever built until the advent of the OHIO class. The TRITON was designed for a surface displacement of 5,900 tons. Large submarines of other countries have been the Japanese I-400 (5,220 tons), and the French SURCOUF (2,880 tons). |

It shows how small the control room is in the wet trainer. (Garry and Pat-Trainer-May 5, 2006.jpg) Attachments ---------------- Garry and Pat-Trainer-May 5, 2006.jpg (84KB - 501 downloads) | ||

MAD DOG - 2009-05-14 9:45 AM Looks a lot like the one I attended in Pearl Harbor(Pearl Harbour to you,Blue) about a hundred years ago. Actually mate, I used to 'correct' the spelling when I wrote it, then a few years ago it dawned on me that no matter this difference in how we spell harbour to your harbor...that the correct spelling of Pearl Harbor is in fact...Pearl Harbor Just like if you guys spelt Sydney Harbour without the 'u', you would then be incorrect.

That is one of the many leaks that they have in the trainer and I remember standing on top of the railing working to fix the flange leak, my buddy and I stashed some tools prior to the leak on top of one of the pieces of equipment thinking that we would out smart the instructors only to find out that we placed the tools in the wrong spot and they went into the bilge when the started the leak  The fire trainer there was very cool back in '90 and we were one of the first classes to use it so at Pearl doing the fire trainer there just wasn't the same. | ||
