SUBSIM Radio Room Forums - U-BOOT

hi Schwieger,

for what reason the closing of Megaupload may will affect the team?

Megaupload is just one of the hundreds (?) uploaders out there ...

He was most likely thinking that the HAHD team maybe had some crucial files stored there, that would be lost now.

All is ok in that regard, U-Boot-HAHD has its own website and FTP area for file handling.
So no hold up to the Team in that respect. :up:

That is ex-U 573. Sold to Spain in 1942, where it was commissioned as G 7, renamed S 01 in 1961.

U-534 was raised from the seabed in 1993, after which the ship was transported to England and was displayed in the museum in Birkenhead under the Liverpool. In 2007, the submarine was bought out by the company Merseytravel for use as a tourist attraction. For the convenience of visitors the boat cut on four parts. The boat were going to restore but decided to leave it as is because of the fact that lying in salt water 50 years within the well preserved!

A shame then that the boat cut up and not restored.....:nope:

After 50 years in the water she is beautiful...
