I think I only failed to sign off one annual inspection and provided the owner a list of discrepancies during the past 15 years. Mike does make an interesting comment that an owner can request a list of discrepancies and such a sign off if he disagrees with the IA over some issue, and then take it to some other A&P who may agree with the owner and thereby get the discrepancy "corrected". This could be a very subjective decision on the part of both. Seems like the IA doing the annual inspection should state his reason as to why the item is unairworthy. Also, I have wondered why the IA should not put the list of discrepancies in the log book rather than handing the owner a list of a piece of paper which could be modified and even forged. Cliff
