Don’t all have to keep currency records?

I have picture-perfect logbooks for 5,500 hours of flying. Just not the last 8 years.

Any advice would be appreciated! Should I recreate it to the best of my abilities and be ready to explain my lapse of judgment? Create an estimated total?

Thanks so much.

Don’t all Flight Departments have to keep your records for currency, night landings, etc? Every company that I have flown for has kept those records in some departments. That’s a great idea about estimating via pay. Good luck..
