Yes, as I said it's great for 121 stuff. And absolutely pis$ poor if you're looking for all the features y'all have listed, but also want to convert all your paper to digital

Does anyone log in both a paper logbook and digital logbook?


If your digital logbook automatically logs in minutes instead of tenths of an hour, do you log in minutes in your paper logbook too? When starting the electronic logbook, did you take your time in tenths from the paper logbook, put it into minutes and start from that?

i can’t think of a single reason to keep a paper log if you already have digital. Off site back ups are a thing.

I update my digital logbook once every 3 months and Email the file to myself when done. Haven't touched my paper logbook since 2011

Thread Bump -

I just finished updating my digital logbook with every flight since my first as a PPL, to my latest as an RJ Captain. I plan on printing it with Logbook Solutions, but I was wondering what the general consensus was regarding endorsements.

My goal is to only bring my printed digital logbook to potential interviews. I was thinking about scanning all of my endorsements, and various phase-check grade reports from college, and adding an addendum section to the end.

Has anybody experienced any pushback of not brining the originals? My logbook's times were very close (but lower) compared to the calculated times in LTP, and I just don't want to explain why my paper version is less than my digital, and also don't want to mutilate my paper logbooks by adding pages of adjusting entires.

Thanks for everyones thoughts.

Leave the paper in a bank vault somewhere.

IF you have an interview bring them for the endorsements and digital for times.

I ended up using LogTen Pro. I know that there are some shortfalls with the program and subscription model; but ultimately I started a long time ago, and am comfortable with the software.

I like the idea of just using the paper logbooks for endorsements, but ideally would just like to bring the 1 printed (digital) logbook, instead of the 3+ I have, with the endorsements, grade reports, and checkride results in various sections of various books.

Is there no way to take a picture of the endorsements and save the picture in LogTen Pro?

Are endorsements checked during interviews?
