sheets," Figure 2) and associated gripe
sheets (if any) from the last 10 flights (most
recent flight first). The Aircraft Inspection
and Acceptance Record serves as a record
of inspection (maintenance and your
preflight inspection) and also indicates your
acceptance of the aircraft for flight. When
safety of flight maintenance and plane
captain inspections from the previous flight
have been completed, this form is signed
by the plane captain (block 9) and
maintenance control (block 10). You will
sign in block 11 to indicate your acceptance
of the aircraft. An "A sheet" is filled out for
every flight. The pink and yellow gripe
sheets (if any) for the previous flight follow
this form, as shown in Figure 4.
