After about 30 seconds, and looking at if from several angles, my eyes adjusted to the fact, and could register that they are! ;D

Clever illusion that!

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.

Yup they are the same. Look at the top one and relax your eyes, just make sure B is also in your focus. They soon appear as the same.
If you dont believe it. Go into an image editing program and use the tool for the colour info and see they are the same numbers.

Here's a good way to illustrate it. I've drawn a line that is the same color as tiles A and B so that it crosses both of them and the surrounding tiles.
