After every flight, pilots fill out a form called a complaint or gripe sheet, which conveys to the mechanics any problems they had with the airplane during the flights. The mechanics read and correct the problem, and then explain in writing on the lower half of the form what remedial action was taken. The pilotreviews the gripe sheets before the next flight. Never let it be said that the ground crews and engineers lack a sense of humor. Here are some actual maintenance problems submitted by Qantas pilots and the solutions recorded by maintenance engineers. (It should be noted that Qantas is the only major airline that has never had an accident.)

(S = The solution and action taken by the engineers)

...and I always hope that just once, I will get a sassy message from Maintenence. Those saucy buggers.
