Who is responsible for ensuring all noted discrepancies are corrected?

The responsibility for ensuring all noted discrepancies are corrected typically falls on the Original Technician. This individual is directly responsible for the maintenance and repair of the equipment and is the one who performed the work that might have resulted in the discrepancies. When discrepancies are identified, it is essential for the Original Technician to address these issues promptly as they have the most intimate knowledge of the repairs performed and the existing conditions of the equipment.

The Original Technician's role is vital because they are generally the first point of accountability for the quality of their own work. They understand the specific parts and processes involved and can take appropriate corrective action. Ensuring all discrepancies are corrected not only maintains safety and operational readiness but also protects the integrity of the aircraft and its crew.

While other roles such as the Supervisor or Quality Control Inspector play essential parts in overseeing and ensuring compliance with regulations and standards, the direct responsibility to correct noted discrepancies lies with the Original Technician.
