Should I drag out and send in a NASA form?

Depends. Do you think you violated some FAR?

You don't need to have violated any rules to file an ASRS report. The
idea of the system is to gather data on safety issues. Immunity is
just a bonus to encourage reports. If you think that an unsafe
condition exists, feel free to tell about it, regardless of whether
you think you're on the hook. Data submitted when you've done
everything right are just as useful as data submitted when you've
screwed up. Don't worry that the safety issue isn't serious enough,
let the NASA analysts worry about that. The report costs nothing
(well, postage), might protect you from FAA action, and might help
make the system safer. It's a win/win.

If you're worried that you need to file a NASA ASRS report, then why
not just do it and get some sleep?

Has anyone tried the electronic filing yet? If so, how about a pirep?
