Hot take: a sloppy write-up on an engine swap at Tulsa changed how I sign off every job
Two years back I was doing a quick avionics install on a Cessna 172 at a small field outside Tulsa, and I signed off a connector I never actually wiggled by hand. Three weeks later the owner called from a ramp in Wichita with a dead nav radio, and it turned out to be that same loose pin. Half the guys I know say the book sign-off is enough, and the other half won't release anything without a tug test, so where do you all land on it?
