Default Logbook question

Hey guys/gals got a question for you all. I am about to start keeping flight time in logbook pro. How do I go about starting this? Do I have to put in all my previous flights into it? Or do I just start fresh. Putting all flights into logbook pro might take some time.

Thanks

It took me a couple days to manually type in my whole logbook, but after it was finished, it was really worth it. It makes filling out applications like airline apps a breeze.

It took me about two weeks on and off when I made the switch. If you have a smart phone, I think they offer a one month free trial of their mobile version (they did when I first started using it). This is what I did while sitting in the deer stand over a few days....

Do you folks that use an electronic logbook still keep a paper log or just print it out when you need it?

It took me about two months to get all my time in when I started logten pro a year ago. I'm glad I did. I no longer keep a paper log, flights go in the log in real time on the iPhone app and I sync with the Mac when I get home.

Default What is your time worth?

Love logbookPro.

The question is what is your time worth? They will do your data entry for you for a fee.
Data Entry Service

I entered 28 years of data (only 6400 hours) myself but if I had it to do over again, I would let them do it.
