Keep in mind the mechanic on the phone in the NOC would actually have to go through the trouble of finding the previous flight number, then the crews' names, then find out where they're based, find out the chief pilot's numbers, then make a phone call about it. I don't see that happening pretty much ever.
Ok. I had heard otherwise in the past, but maybe you're right. Either way, I can't imagine they would let it go so easily since it involves around 400 dollars give or take for each occurrence if you do it and call it in for the pay.
