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.

Yup RJ Reynolds, purveyor of death and cancer to the world :-X King where I was staying, if the wind is right (or wrong depending on your view), the air is filled with the smell of processing or tobacco plants.

Thanks for the positive remarks. They where just point and shoot. I was guarding our luggage and trying to keep and eye on two very small and inquisitive boys.

Excellent, Matt... [smiley=thumbsup.gif]...!

It always amazes me how the puny little telescopic, steerable, nose wheel on a large passenger aircraft, like the one depicted in Pic 2, can support the weight of the entire Aircraft; its passengers, and its load!... :o...!

They always seem very easy to damage, bend, or snap off!...!
