By the leg, with the Logbook Pro Mobile app. My logbook is up to date before I'm even off the airplane.

I personally know a guy who did just that and was hired at DAL back in 2008 time frame.

Log by day in a paper logbook. Never plan on going electronic either. Haven't logged a tail number since I flew GA. I just put what airline and what type aircraft. Never had an issue in interviews.

Haven't logged an hour of time since 1986! Flown about 16,000 since then though.

Exactly!

There is some nostalgia in a handwritten log. They are cool.

No redeeming factors whatsoever about a (by then obsolete) .xls file.

I have paper logbooks for up to 2001. 2002 onward is all electronic. I like the advantage of keeping notes about people I fly with. Family, kids, hobbies etc. It's easy to tell how many times I've flow with them before. Leg by leg helps to see how many times I've flown into particular airfields. Plus my logbook is saved on my computer, iPad, iPhone and cloud. I have it printed out. There's no excuse to lose it.

Notwithstanding that many foreign carriers require actual logbooks with stamps. It's great for nostalgic purposes. I've been logging every leg separately since 1992 which was required back then. Still is in some parts of the world.

I did leg by leg until I got hired by DL. Now I do it by the trip... though haven't totaled in quite a while.

Get a job at Delta then throw all of your logbooks away.

Not really.... You're only as good as your last AVQ.
