Just received an email from Coradine. They still haven't changed their pricing and insist "pilots love LTP X." They found 2 positive reviews. Here's the body of the email:

Pilots Love LogTen Pro X

Thanks to everyone who has downloaded LogTen Pro X and helped to make this our best launch weekend ever! Nearly nine thousand pilots are already onboard. Download your copy now for free so you can try the new features for yourself.

Here's what a few of them had to say:

"Been using Log Ten Pro for years and the last version is superb! Not so long ago i wrote the support team about the idea of let mobile devices recognize the place, which is really important when it comes to helicopter pilots: we don't spend our entire life between airports! & and with the last version, here it is: "fly now" option!! amazing! LogTen Pro X is "the jam" !!! Thank you, Coradine!!"

AS365 Pilot

"I've been using this electronic logbook for four years. It has an easy interface, cloud syncing across devices, and they continue to improve it. It is so much more than a paper logbook - I keep photos, notes, track fuel use, expenses, everything. I can customize my interface completely - when I'm instructing a lot it is set for that, if I'm doing charter it supports easy entry there. It looks good, I can print most any report I want, and I can see in an instant my currency and totals. I never get behind on logging my time because I can enter my time in seconds on my iphone and the customer support is great."

App Store Review

"First off I would like to thank you for a great product. Just got the new one [LogTen Pro X] and it looks great and was very simple to get my data over to the new program. Also thanks for offering the discount on the subscription for the 1st two weeks."

Yes, LogTen Pro X for iOS is a subscription.
And yes, LogTen Pro X for Mac is free.

We aim to be as transparent as possible at Coradine, we take your comments seriously and act with three objectives always in mind based on our mission to help pilots.

Our objectives are: to provide you with the best logbook on the market, coupled with the best service you've ever had, for a fair price that enables us to continue doing so for many, many years to come.

Our CEO (Noah), recently wrote a (long and detailed) posting on how a subscription makes all the above possible.

Here's an excerpt:

"I am super excited about our new LogTen Pro X platform and subscription model! Giving you access to LogTen Pro X on all your devices, a regular subscription has huge advantages in this new world of constant updates.

Subscriptions mean you will always have the latest version with regular feature updates as soon as they are honed to perfection. Upgrade your device and OS with confidence and security, knowing we will keep you in the loop with upcoming features and compatibility."

And...

"A subscription gives us much more flexibility, and using this flexibility, we have decided to make sure that all pilots with LogTen Pro always have access to their historic data. So even if you have to take some time away from flying and let your subscription lapse, you will still get all the updates to LogTen Pro X and can continue to use your logbook and all of LogTen Pro X's great features to view, search, edit, generate reports etc.! A subscription is only required to continue adding new flights beyond the first 40 hours." To read the full article, click here.

Finally, to make sure there is no confusion about pricing...

LogTen Pro X for Mac is free. Download it here right now and use it, no cost, no subscription, no restrictions, the best logbook on the market, on your desktop at no charge.

LogTen Pro X for iOS is free for the first 40 hours of flight time logged and then you will be prompted to purchase a subscription.

Until Oct 31, 2014 annual subscriptions for LogTen Pro X for iOS are discounted by 50% at $34.99US for the first year. After October 31, the annual subscription goes up to $69.99US/year, or choose monthly for $6.99US. Download it here, test it out fully and try before you buy.

And remember ... your data is always yours. If you let your subscription lapse and have over 40 hours of flight time logged, the only two functions that are disabled is the ability to add new flights and sync. You can analyze your historic data, export reports, track certificates and everything else you love LogTen Pro for...

And of course, if you have any comments, questions or suggestions, you can always contact our fantastic support team at help.coradine.com!

Thanks for reading,
Team Coradine


...needless to say, I unsubscribed. I'm done with this stubborn, greedy company.
