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.

It's a fort, built in roughly from late 1600's to early 1800's.

I'm gonna make a wild guess.  Ft. Ticonderoga?

I had been reading a book on the turning points of warfare, and that was pretty much the zenith of fort design.  An attacker couldn't attack any wall without being exposed to fire from the fort.

Yeah I see what you mean about the design. Now here's a hint about what it is. It is one of the oldest buildings in America. See what you can make out of that.  :)

Castillo de San Marcos at St Augustine, Florida. Believe it or not I've actually been there.


...did you manage to break through their defences, Doug?... ::)...?

Paul....parading the ramparts.... 8-)...!

Reminds me somewhat about our one...>>>
