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 could use some hardened shelters instead of tents under cammie netting too, but that's how we roll!   8-) ;)

Fozz, we took off from hawthorne, NV then headed due west into the mountains.  If you can find "hilton ranch" that's where we were, they have a airstrip, and yes it is THE hilton's ranch, so it might be in there.
