Good news to hear you and your family are well.  We will continue to pray for all those who perished and most certainly for who are in harms way.

Respectfully ,

The earthquake is not only affecting Christchurch but most of the South Island. I have to go down south of Christchurch to do a few days work and almost all the petrol centrals for 3 hours driving time out of Christchurch are out of fuel because people are panic buying. The same for bread and milk, lots of people are panic buying food etc... also. It is starting to calm down a bit now as people realizes there is no need to panic and stockpile fuel or food.

That may take a while, they are saying that one third of the building in Christchurch's CBD are either destroyed or will have to be demolished :o :'(

Even, U-1308 has been affect by the Christchurch earthquake ;D Last week I had to take my big computer into Christchurch to get fix. I pickup my computer in the weekend and realize after getting home that the shop had forget to give my back my power cable (I have a special power cord for my big computer). I call them and ask for them to sent it back to me. But now it lose in the mailing system of Christchurch :D and there will be no mail system for about 8 days until they can get the system up and running again. So, there will have been a delay on U-1308, but it's given me time to do all the little job around home that I been putting off for the summer ;D

Work has restarted again on U-1308, after the mailing system was restarted after the EQ in Chch. Today the dockworker installed the port side Type GGUB 720/8 Electric motor. As I have now decided to do U-1308 in 1:32 scale, I have decided to add a few cutaway views, as at this scale it will allow me to show some of the detail inside equipment.

Here a couple of fact about the Chch EQ.

  • They believe 70,000 people (approximately fifth of Christchurch's population, have fled the city since the earthquake on 22 February).
  • They now think it is the must powerful earthquake ever it hit a city CBD area.
  • They expected parts of the CBD will be closed for up to six months. This can be seen in the Kiwi dollar hitting a 19-year low against the Australian dollar.
  • So far 50 percent of the top level heritage building in Christchurch are likely to be demolished and 1,350 house are likely to be demolished also.

Thanks, Pat. That sound great. Can you rememeber the name of the program? I would be kind to watch it if it comes to New Zealand.

If I remember correctly, it was a program called "The American Experience" and it was the Buffalo, New York, PBS (Public Broadcasting System), station WNED.  I'm sure they must have a website.

The American Experience is an ongoing series that takes some event in US history that might have some unknown or controversial details and every week goes into whatever is known about it.

Thanks Pat! Found it.

Hi Pat

Just watch it on YouTube. Excellent program!! Thanks again.

Researches are momentary stalled - I'm afraid, that without any new materials or without visit in Laboe,
at this moment I can't figure out something new...

I hope, I will visit U-995 in May, and then many question will be answered. :)
