Sounds like he either needs leg by leg information that is long lost, or make a logbook conform to his non standard way of logging hours. I'm sure you all log instrument time too when your not even the pilot flying, something that the FAA would not agree with. But hell, with this current job market, doubt any LCC will care!

I love this implication that someone who makes an ordinary math error in a logbook is some kind of idiot who shouldn't be in a jet cockpit.
Ten years ago I converted all my GA and military logs into a digital logbook, and I was amazed with the number of errors I'd made over the years, as well as how many errors the USAF had made in tracking my time (in its own digital database) as well.
After all the effort I put into creating the digital log, and seeing all the previous errors I caught while auditing the records, I committed to ensuring the accuracy of the entries in the new log from then forward.
Well, a funny thing happened; every time I've performed a logbook audit, I've found some kind of error. Most of it completely minor, but errors none the less. All easily corrected, of course.
Guess I'm just a moron. Wish I could be more like some of you perfect folks.

I've been using a free excel template I downloaded a few years ago from www.excelpilotlogbook.com
Just checked back on the website and it looks like it's now a paid product, but is still a lot cheaper than the likes of Logten Pro etc.
I might think about buying the new version as the old one is a bit ugly... Has anyone used or is using the Excel Pilot Logbook?
