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.

Anyone know where I can watch full episodes of Top Gear online? YouTube only has parts and on Dutch tv you only get to see 3 year old shows. No BBC on my satellite receiver...

Carlo ;)

PS I tried Google. Plenty of old shows, no new ones or they are not available in my area. Whatever that means.

Carlo, the best place is Final Gear They produce their own torrents. I have been using them for years and have never had a problem with them in the "added extras" that some sites include in downloads. Also the shows are posted a day or so after they are broadcast.

PS Top Gear is back on the 23rd of January and will have a Christmas special

So they skip an autumn series despite the shortest spring series ever, and then make us wait a year?
Sorry I love top gear, but for what they have as their budget, if it becomes a once a year thing, then 6 episodes is totally unacceptable.

Especially when we hear about the franchises in Russia, Oz and the USA and that the BBC sells the UK show to a world wide audience. Makes you wonder where all the money is going as it is not being ploughed back into a winning product >:(

If God intended aircraft engines to have horizontally opposed engines, Pratt and Whitney would have made them that way.
