My pet hate is pilots that prefix their defect write up with the words "for info only"
Its either a defect or its not.....
If it's in the book, it's a defect, no matter what they write in front of it.
Although it might not be the same with other airlines but at EK a Tech Log entry can be prefixed with LI, LP or LL.
LI= info only, no action (necessarily) required
LP= PIREP
LL= Line maintenance entry
When cabin defects such as "brewer inop" is made on an aircraft with 3 or 4 galleys that each has 3 or 4 brewer machines. Wich one is inop?!?!? Just to later find out that it did work, it was just over filling the jug.
"Lav xx not flushing on ground" .... try flushing it after toilet and water servicing, not during.
"Galley xx sink drain blocked" .... Try to not pour milk and orange juice down the same drain at the same time!!!
A single cabin entry containing
"Seat XXX video not working, seat YYY tray table inop and curtain at door XX stained" ... what happened to making three entries for three unrelated faults?
Sure I will have more fresh examples, multi national crew makes for interesting reading sometimes.
