As for after, it takes two seconds to create a new flight entry and add your times. Prefill before departure and all you have is your IN time after you land.

The company’s computer (DBMS) will catch FAR violations, and you won’t be flying that much here anyway, unless you are just a glutton for punishment. Put that part of the regional mindset behind you.
I import after by copy/pasting the entire rotation after it’s done. All I have to do is change 2 of the importer’s fields to be “Out/In” instead of “Scheduled out/in”. Takes 2 seconds total for everything. Frankly, I don’t really know why I keep track anymore anyway.
Do what you want, of course. I just think doing it before is a waste of time, and takes a lot more labor to update out/in times for every leg of a rotation, than to import the whole thing after.

Here's a way external (to DL) website to convert your PAS to a format suitable for import into Logbook Pro. I've tried it and it works well. Delta Pilots Logbook Pro Conversion
