BigCity,

I interviewed with my Logbook Pro logbook that had everything transferred like you did. I think that it makes a good impression since everything is practically perfect, and it is easy to inspect. So on my interview I had my nice, leather bound, high dollar, monogrammed logbook tabbed with everything that SWA wanted, and it looked great! I also had my military flight records closeout, and that is all the interviewer/logbook reviewer wanted to see. He asked if there was anything in my civilian logbook that wasn't in my military records, and I said; "No, it is just a back-up of my military records." After that he never even cracked the front cover. You will see all types of logbooks, some are held together with rubber bands and tape and several guys had five or six logs. Some guys were obviously a little self conscious about the appearance of their logbooks, but really I think the airline understands that not everyone was thinking "airline job" way back when they first started making entries. However, I think your logbook will make it easy on the interviewer and will be a cinch to tab per SWA instructions. I actually got quite a few compliments on my logbook from other guys interviewing since we all had to lay them out on the table together.
I only interviewed with the one airline and am currently in their hiring pool, so for me everything worked out great. Best of Luck!
