Speaking of pencil whipping log books,

I might not get much honesty on this forum, but just how prevalent is the practice?
When I sit in a new hire class at a regional, how much of the experience is real?

I've been to two different airline interviews (hired into a pool for both) and it's been my experience that my logbook was barely looked at. Captain/HR giving the interview thumbs through it (seemingly) absent-mindedly while listening to my answers to technical questions or something. As best as i recall, I was never asked questions about my time and my logbook.

Discuss!
