It takes a college degree to fly a plane but only a high school diploma to
fix one.

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, and then pilots
review the gripe sheets before the next flight. Never let it be said that
ground crews lack a sense of humour. Here are some actual maintenance
complaints submitted by the Qantas' pilots (marked with a "P"), and the
solutions recorded by maintenance engineers (marked with an "S").

(By the way, Qantas is the only major airline that has never, ever, had a
crash.)


P: Left inside main tyre almost needs replacement.
S: Almost replaced left inside main tyre.

P: Test flight OK, except auto-land very rough.
S: Auto-land not installed on this aircraft...

P: Evidence of leak on right main landing gear.
S: Evidence removed.

P: DME volume unbelievably loud.

P: Friction locks cause throttle levers to stick.
S: That's what friction locks are for.

P: IFF inoperative in OFF mode.
S: IFF always inoperative in OFF mode.

P: Suspected crack in windshield.
S: Suspect you're right.

P: Number 3 engine missing.
S: Engine found on right wing after brief search.

P: Aircraft handles funny.
S: Aircraft warned to straighten up, fly right, and be serious.

P: Target radar hums.
S: Reprogrammed target radar with lyrics.

P: Mouse in cockpit.

And the best one for last...................
