Airplane Deficiencies
After every flight, Qantas pilots fill out a form,
called a "gripe
sheet," which tells mechanics about problems with the
aircraft. The
mechanics correct the problems, document their repairs
on the form, &
then
pilots review the gripe sheets before the next flight.
Never let it be said that ground crews lack a sense of
humor. Here are
some actual maintenance complaints submitted by
Quantas' pilots & the
solutions recorded by maintenance engineers.
By the way, Quantas is the only major airline that has
never had an
accident.
(P= The problem logged by the pilot.)
(S= The solution and action taken by mechanics.)

Quote from someone on IMDB in reference to a movie he/she didn't understand. Such grammar!
