This thread is pretty interesting, as a low-ish (<1000 hours on type) guy I don't see much of the techlog.
One question I do have, is at my airline, it seems cabin crew are actively encouraged to write up defects in the Cabin Defects Log (managers assume if there aren't defects you aren't looking hard enough and are reprimanded). A favorite past-time in delay situations is for them to look for dings and bulbs gone and write them up, am I writing in thinking at the end of the day we should have a look in it and transfer pertinent ones to the main Tech log?
I'm just as bad, part of my pre-flight includes a light test and if I have time i'll replace all the bulbs that are gone from the onboard spares box, do you Techlog it if you've taken one or two out? Or is this sort of thing operator specific?
