What I would really like to know is.
If the daily inspection is carried out by the maintainers and I then do my preflight inspection knowing that somebody else has certified for all the same (plus some) of what I am required to do IAW the flight manual. I then certify for that inspection by accepting the aircraft.
Who carries the can if something is missed?
The last person who certified or both? In either case I fully realize who has to cope with the inflight emergency!!!!!!
