Well I am no math-funster but I did. (with Mma 3.0 and also with a personal
C code)

yes ! (same method)

What about primes in Fibonacci progression ?
I mean, start with two primes p and q, p<q

p
q
p+q+1
p+2q+2
2p+3q+4
3p+5q+7
5p+8q+12
..
F[n] p + F[n+1] q + F[n+2]-1

are primes.
An example with length 2+5 is {29,83}
29, 83, 113, 197, 311, 509, 821  (next term 1331 is composed)

and an example with length 2+6 is {89,359}
89, 359, 449, 809, 1259, 2069, 3329, 5399

I am sure there is much longer.
