But surely common sense would see anyone with a healthy sense of self preservation at least having the common sense to ask what the leak was, after all it could be the beginning of a major hydraulic or mechanical failure.
My 20 odd years of flying have taught me that there are no stupid questions and that in general things of a mechanical nature are not supposed to leak, hence it would only be natural to make sure all was ok.........or would you advocate I stick my head in the sand and simply climb on board and hope for the best
