Looks like you had a nice rainy day up in San Fransisco. I love the water spray when the aircraft touches down. ;)

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 think the Highway patrol had a report of some guy on the Tarmac with a camera. Either that or someone on the planes called about all the seagulls, chasing their planes.  Mark
