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.

I've never seen an equal to that kind of realism in oil paints.

Not bad, but does she paint other things besides women in the shower....? ::)

When I hear 'Photo Realistic', I think more scenic themes... ;D

Capturing the impact of the the qway light changes thru the water droplets and the glass it a virtuoso performance of both observation and skill with the paint medium.  That is some serious skill there.  Then you get to the choice of content and the formal composition ....which are both stellar.

All in all.......  a WOW.

best,
