I was reminded of this when I saw CuteSparklezGirl's list of airplane screwups.

The following maintenance work orders were submitted by pilots.
The replies are from aircraft maintainers.
Problem: Left inside main tire almost needs replacement.
Solution: Almost replaced left inside main tire.

Solution: Auto land not installed on this aircraft.
Problem: Propeller #2 seeping prop fluid.
Solution: Propeller #2 seepage normal - #1, #3 and #4 propellers lack normal seepage.
Problem: The autopilot doesn't.
Solution: It does now!
Problem: Something loose in cockpit.
Solution: Something tightened in cockpit.
Problem: Evidence of leak on right main landing gear.
