The Shepherd by Frederick Forsyth; has anyone else read this? I have just got reacquainted with it after about 30-ish years. A Vampire pilot flying to the UK who gets a couple of problems on the way. Effectively a ghost story, but only just. If you have not read it, I will not spoil it, but if you like a good yarn in the air, you will like this.

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.
