As another poster explained, the IA is required by the FARs to provide a
written explanation identifying each item that is unairworthy. A log book

In fact, Mike Busch recommends (and I see the reasoning) that the
discrepancy list *not* be placed in the log. There's no reason that this
information should be "preserved" at that level.

The list is required, but there's no requirement that it be logged.
