Saw this on the Simviation news ticker:

This is what I (sometimes) work on at Barksdale.  Usually, I tend the ancient CPT trainer, however (vintage early '70's, with only a few mods).

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.
