They are looking for all events (type ratings/atp/1000 tpic...)that they ask you tab in your logbooks. They also ask you for your time in the last 5 years. I broke it down by type/PIC-SIC every 12 months to include each type for 5 years (60 months).
The pilot conducting the logbook review will ask you all sorts of questions about how much time in the last 90 days, 6 months, 12 months, all the way to 5 years I think. HERE IS THE KEY. I built a table with all of the times broken down and put a southwest logo on it and pulled it out when he started asking about the times. He said, "Whatcha got there?" so I explained and so he said, "Hand it over" and he filled his form out off of my tables. He chuckled and joked about being super prepared.
The rest of the time was Why Southwest? Tell me about a time when you failed as a leader. More relaxed than the other two parts but you can still blow it on this portion.
