Challenge and Response Log Question
Hey all,
I'm new to the forum, I'm just wondering if someone could answer a question for me.
If a commercial jet is grounded by the pilots for a flight for technical reasons, what is this recorded in?
I was told that the pilots go through a checklist at the start and fill in a challenge and response log if there is any problems. Could anyone tell me if this is right and if not could you tell me what the pilots use?
Thanks

Any technical problems would be recorded in the Tech Log. The pilots and engineers would refer to a document called the MEL (Minimum Equipment List) which outlines the technical problem and then whether the aircraft can be dispatched or not. I don't know about a challenge and response log but that could be a name for the technical log in other countries.
