Default Google Sheet Logbook

Hi Everyone,

New to the forum and it seems like a great resource!

I have been keeping track of my time for a while now using a spreadsheet on Google Docs that is formatted like a professional pilot logbook page. If signed by me, is something like this acceptable for an interview? If so, then what would be a good way to present it?

I have all my old logbooks with every sign off in them as well.

Thanks!

Airlines seem to accept a wide variety of logbook formats these days. As long as it's neat and logical it should be fine. Do bring the paper books in case they want to see endorsements, etc.

I am using safelog and it allows you to scan in endorsements etc..I haven't went to a 121 interview yet, but from what I hear, they will accept electronic logs. I think I am going to have the local print shop see if they can print and bind it into a nice "book" format before the interview.

Yea most of them do, I did my logbook the same way. Although before interview time last summer I put it into excel and made it pretty with a nice totals breakdown and summarization chart. All the interviewers liked it, because it was neat and well kept. I actually printed multiple copies so I could give them one if they asked. I interviewed with 6 companies and was offered at all of them. But I also keep my older ones if they wanted to look through endorsements and such.
