For example I've got one on the boil where an organisation in the 20thCentury acquires the Starfleet database from 'round the 24thC. They have to take little steps in understanding the tech bolting the new engines onto existing airframes, before building an adapted Defiant-class.

Sorry couldn't resist, when I read your story idea, this came to mind.
(It's a paraphrase of the background material for a wargame that models startrek starships.)
Actually Star Fleet made the same "mistake" back some time after captain Kirks first 4 year mission.
That time the data base was accidentally sent through a time warp to an airforce mainframe in the early 1970's. Naturally it was so badly garbled by the primitive hardware that all it was ever used for was to create a wargame.
I know where you can find hundreds if not thousands of captains...
The next generation technology might be a little unfamiliar, but I know a group of starship captains that could almost out fight Captain Kirk.![[Image: wink.gif]](http://www.ezboard.com/intl/aenglish/images/emoticons/wink.gif)
