"Water is heavier than gravity"  ;D

I love it!



Just don't try it in space. The gravitational acceleration will be pretty much the same, but you'll be mopping out the shuttle for weeks!

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.
