About those 2 sonar line files Mr beanie, as you've downloaded them they now belong to you, do what ever you want with them.
1 more thing, I've been all over the Northern Pacific and I've never ever seen the Shinano.
Good. Thanks for that... We'll test and number, add some documentation, then include your private fone number for tech support.

A couple of questions about what I did in "Orange" above. The Shinano was a one-trick pony in its day, and was only useful as a fireball when it encountered the Archerfish. It was enroute for final fitting, including proper ventilation systems as well as water-tight compartmentalizations. Just happened to catch it at the correct time, else the story would be different. Under normal circumstances, no one would encounter the ship, unless in the Museum... We do NOT have this mission in the game, and the ship may well be deleted due to not only skinning issues, but construction issues...

A most interesting set of circumstances. Anyway, you also mention the Northern Pacific and Midway starts... I am curious if you ever were assigned a "Polar Circuit" mission (you too, torpedobait), and if so, what was the traffic like during your journey, to, during and from the patrol area(s)? Thanks.
