I recognised the the kit as a Blanik in the first picture without even reading what it was. Lovely aircraft and the only aircraft that has ever come close (really close, in fact very really close) to causing me to soil myself when the capabilities of the aircraft was demonstrated to me by doing an outside loop...

Saying that, being in a CRJ200 that had uncommanded roll spoiler deployment 20 feet from touch down is a very, very close second.............

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.
