These probably are all permutations (for starting value > 1, of 
course).  I don't see any approach to a proof.

(I also submitted the beginning of the sequence for a(1) = 5, but you 
get
the idea.)

Question: Are the sequences generated this way each a permutation of 
the
positive integers for a(1) = any integer >= 2?

If some a(1)'s lead to permutations and some do not, what would the
sequence be of the a(1)'s which do (or don't) lead to permutations?
