In the 5th paragraph of the Aviation Herald article, it claims the aircraft arrived at an airfield with the flap defect. However, no ground engineer was present to inspect the flap system, potentially identify the problem, rectify and certify maintenance??
Is the pressure that great on some crew to NOT write snags (stoppers) in the Techlog? Are some misguided into thinking they are 'helping' their employer?
As an Engineer, I am genuinely curious..
