55 years old career rotary wing pilot here. Commercial instrument helicopter. Currently at a major 135 operator in the Gulf of Mexico and planned on retiring here. As a result, I haven't touched a logbook in years since this company keeps accurate track of all my times and I can easily print out a summary which includes all my military time and other past times with other employers etc. Also, had no plans on changing companies but current environment here is "sinking ship" so I'm probably going to make the jump via RTP. I'll be scheduling an interview for RTP in the next month or so.

I did keep all my flight sheets and could realistically sit down and transfer everything to a paper logbook but I'm certain it would be very obvious to anyone that looks at them that I transferred everything at once. Not to mention the 100 or so hours it would take to try and rebuild all my times on paperwork. Geeezzzz, that's going to be painful...

I guess my question is, should I go ahead and try to get everything in a paper logbook even though it's not going to be pretty? Thanks.
