Great shots and fun looking day out. The Connie is a true classic. A while ago I watched her story on Discovery Channel. It started with the finding of her in Monthan Davis and ending with a fly over Sydney, with several years separating the find and the flight (if memory serves).

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.
