    Humor

    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 Qantas' pilots & the solutions recorded by
    maintenance engineers. By the way, Qantas 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.)

    P: DME volume unbelievably loud.
    S: DME volume set to more believable level.

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

    P: IFF inoperative.
