2. And, if you have time to write the fault on a napkin and attach to it to the yoke.........you have time to write it in the tech log....see point 1.

What I like about the English Flag of Saint George, (and the Union Flag), is that we only display it, with pride, just for special occasions...

...and NOT force it in everyones faces...;)...;)...;)...!

I saw a Mercedes with two St. George flags flying as I was pulling into Tesco's car park this morning. It was driven by an Asian lady and she got her child of around 3 years old out of the car and he was wearing an England football shirt!

Marvellous!  8-)
