I don't want to go through all of them, but I believe the first 777 is actually a 767-400

You can tell the differance of a 737 cockpit at how old it looks and how the AP/ Master warning panel looks. There is webbie somehwere where they explain it all ::)

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.
