I'm not so sure - if you include the March 29 peak along with the last peak on april 14 the separation between these peaks is 16 days. Oddly enough if you look at the X-ray maximum peak from the 1998 event, there was a flare about 16 days prior to it - meaning (maybe) that the march 14 peak was the X-ray maximum! that's what alarms me you're right though it is fascinating!
