Must be a mate of Tony Blair (or Lord Levy) to get away with that one...

Or be doing it at London City Airport! ;D

And the saddest part is it'll still go as slow as a 2CV when it is jammed in the traffic! Oh and a motorbike that can go faster costs about 5 grand for a good one ;D

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.
