COMMENTS
For k > 1, numbers k such that the digit 5 followed by k-2 occurrences of the digit 9 followed by the digits 09 is prime (see Example section).
a(29) > 3*10^5.
EXAMPLE
2 is in this sequence because 6*10^2 - 91 = 509 is prime.
Initial terms and associated primes:
a(1) = 2, 509;
a(2) = 6, 5999909;
a(3) = 25, 59999999999999999999999909;
a(4) = 30, 5999999999999999999999999999909;
a(5) = 45, 5999999999999999999999999999999999999999999909; etc.
