Has other airlines have had the maintenance problems I'm now experiencing? Ex.
1. Plane not out from hanger at departure time.
2. A fleet wide repeating write-up that doesn't go away. (one plane was down for months)
3. It seems the pilots know more than the mechanics do when diagnosing the problem.
4. Pulling away from the gate only to have found out that something was over serviced and now is spilling on the ramp.
5. Can't call maintenance because he's on the line with 3 other planes.
6. Write something up- mechanic cannot duplicate and signs it off. Problem reoccurs at the outstation- now your screwed.
Normally I used to have 1 return to gate in 3-4 months. Now it seems 1-2 a month.
Others?
