I agree HA - everything should be written on the MR. Not everything written on the MR will ground an aircraft. Pilots and engineers should know that, but not all seem to.
I am lucky enough to fly an aircraft that is about 3 years old. Last time I flew it, its MR had 14 entries over 4 pages. How else will the nut stranglers know what to fix I am 300 miles away?
