I'd have to dig out my logbooks. I don't think I've logged anything for the last decade; maybe longer.

Once you've gone to your final airline and don't fly for pleasure, what's the point of a logbook? Serious question.

I'm of the same opinion. The only requirement is that you maintain a record showing you're current and qualified. Most airlines I know of do that for pilots anyways.

How do you know you're at your final job? I'd imagine some Pan Am, Eastern pilots probably thought they were at their final job as well.

Because I'm old and have enough sources of non-employment income/savings that if my legacy were to close its doors tomorrow, I'd just go into 'early retirement'.

Actually his mobile app does that. You schedule import from FLICA. The mobile app then automatically fills in your times, tail number and type aircraft calculates your block time and night time and then exports it to logbook pro or any logbook program for you leg by leg.

The only block you have to fill in is instrument time and approaches if it’s not the default visual approach.
