I have a copy of all my FedEx flight time that I down loaded from the company database (green screen? VIPS? p.f.c?). You can download the data to an excel spread sheet. You can print the data out if you ever need or want to. I printed it all out and had FedEx Kinkos put a nice binder on it.
Did they do away with that system? The only problem I had with the company system was that it only listed date, origin, destination, a/c # & landings (it did not list other crew members).
You need some basic computer skills but it's a LOT more convenient than maintaining a logbook ...
