One of the requirements to bring to the assessment is "last logbook approved and stamped by the company. " (typical Turkish mentality pretending that everyone lives in base). How do you guys plan on accomplishing that ?

I was already told by a friend who questioned this that they won't approve a logbook approved by your local FSDO

Where do you see this at? The assessment briefing pack I was sent simply says to bring your logbooks. I don't see anything in there about stamping from a company. Don't even know what that means, my Chief signing off on it?

Directly from the assessment briefing packet...

_ Logbook – must be signed and stamped by the company
• Must bring original logbook and photocopy of the last two pages to assessments
• Last log book needs to be signed and stamped by the company

I spoke directly with someone at FCI and she told me that you are required to have your logbook stamped and signed by your current employer.... I too am not sure how to do this...

Ditto. I have asked multiple people at my regional and the word I am getting is that no one in the company will do this. What they will do is give me a printout of my crewtrac logs in a packet on company letterhead--but there is NO ONE in the company who will stamp/certify logbooks.

Really want this and would love to live/work in Istanbul, but want to make sure I get all the documentation before going so I'm not sent home!

Having the logbook stamped (usually each page) is very common among European carriers. I have done this for years. Typically the Chief Pilot's assistant has a stamp and stamps away. I am not saying the assistant is verifying what he/she is stamping he just stamps and stamps and stamps... I am not sure how those applying from the US would do this but i suspect this is a gray area for US applicants. I would attempt to get an official stamp of "some sort" on each page...to show the effort. I am not saying that each stamp i have is readable but it has satisfied the requirement for 10 plus years now...
This is only the start of the challenges one faces...everyone has a stamp outside of the US and it means power...
Not that it was right but in some cases i used my own office stamp when i was in a pinch...again unreadable but stamped!
