Google search on the tail number says it was during a C check (ground maintenance), so no pax on board at the time.

It looks fine! ;D Nothing a bit of gaffer tape can't fix! :D Seriously though it's an A300 so it's probably due to be retired soon anyway!

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.
