"parking" brake on a Cessna 172 came out in my hand
"bad mag check", as in the engine would not even run on one mag.. it was
totally dead, that has happened more than once on various aircraft.
"a funny noise" in the full deflection of the elevator, found a screw that
was too long had been used to anchor an inspection panel and the lengthy end
was rubbing on the trim spring

just to name a few

Has any of you has ever discovered something during the pre-flight
inspection that necessitated a significant deferrment of your flight
plan or a cancelation altogether? Just curious, that's all.

Thanks,
