This is exactly what I believe it should be used for. It's personal!

No, the regional airlines are the only sticklers about this "turn over your log book to us so we can review and judge" in my personal experience. GA is not like this at all. I remember last 5 GA gigs I had not one asked to see my log book for dissecting. After 1500 hours it gets as personal as a vaccination. Plus, it's a bit on the creepy side of things in my opinion, no? I wouldn't want to show my flying pictures to some stranger asking me as if he/she didn't believe me when I say I am a pilot. Someone I'm flying with and next to sure, all day long!

My memories are stored in pictures I take. I believe paper log is a bit old fashion but to each their own. I'm not damning anyone for doing it. I'm damning HR for being nosy, creepy, lazy. I blame us for allowing it to happen as if we would give our left leg to get to the majors.



For the other poster, John....

I'm not the only one that thinks like this. You are the only one letting this thought get under your skin. I'm not here to penetrate you or anyone. I am here to help make all of our lives better even the so called HR which I firmly believe is a useless J-O-B. Analyze this, find another place for belonging in this world. Now, what if.... what if ...what if you (HR) had to fly with the person you chose for hours at a time? How would you (HR) handle working with that person I chose you to work with every day? What would you do if they decided to use a stapler instead of a paperclip? I don't understand why not able to get along, he/she has 99,047,845 (no decimals) hours logged behind desk. Must have been logged illegally!!! Yep, logged while sitting next to someone!
Seems a bit silly?
