1. Captain, if the problem is not entered into the technical logbook.........then the aircraft does not have a problem.
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.

Congrats Leigh. :)
If they don't want you, we'd be glad to have you.

That's great! Look foward to a long training life if you want to be in the Navy, a bloody one if you want to be in the Army, or a crazy, absolutly crazy and insane dreamland one if you are picked for the Airforce.  ::)
I went outside once. The graphics weren't all that great.

The key to all of this is physical condition.  Take it from one who waltzed through the writtens for Aviation Cadets only to find I had insufficient depth perception among other things.  Being returned to the ranks was the result.
