I'll throw my opinion in as well. I use Logbook Pro and pay for the mobile app sync. With how easy and quick it is to log a flight, I just go ahead and do leg by leg. Usually when after we block in I've finished my logbook entry before the first 5 people are off the plane.

I'll look into this. Log ten now requires 75$ per year just to have an electronic logbook. Going to find a better option.

I paid $100 for lifetime access of LogTen Pro on my Mac. If you want it on your phone (up to 5 device) there are subscription options.

Printed mine out in Jepp 13 format and put a binder clip on it. I'll export to the nice leather bound logbook for the majors.

Due to my military log books not using the same terminology (aircraft commander vs PIC) or not using terms at all (dual received) I ended up transferring my log books over to digital. Ended up with log ten pro due to having a mac at home.

For when I interview, I bring my old military logs as well as a clean printed out one from log ten pro. I let them know that everything in the mostly hand written military ones is in the printed digital one and so far in the two interviews I've had they didn't open the military ones. For printing I splurged and got a binder and paper from Logbook Solutions-Home and then print at home on a laser printer. It looks nice and I like that I can add pages to the log when ever I've flown enough to justify printing more or there is a need such as an interview. A kind of pricey way to go, but I really like the end product and flexibility.

For those looking for a logbook program, I would recommend MCC Pilot Log. One time fee for everything that the other programs charge monthly or yearly for. It runs about $80-90 for a one time fee for the entire program ( cloud storage, phone app, sync between all devices, uploads schedules from most airlines right into the program).

For interviews, just take the logbook with the sign offs and the printed electronic log book.

In the grueling process of transferring all of my paper records to logbook (in as much of the original detail as possible). Wish I had started this earlier.

At this point, since I'm going 121, is there any reason I should differentiate between cross countries with landings vs point to point cross countries? Or just log it all the same, since I don't think it will matter anymore? I don't think any airlines ask you to split them on applications, do they?

Doesn't matter, as long as you have enough X-Cory hours to qualify for an ATP. After you get an ATP, none of the minute details matter all that much.

I'm on the helo side of the world at the moment, but when I got out of the military I transferred over my military log books to Logten Pro according the FAR/AIM rules since the military does things slightly differently. I took the file from Logten Pro and went to the local Kinko's and had them print out the logbook on nice paper and had put in a binder. Now I just put in a new sheet every couple of months.

When I went to several interviews nobody asked to see the military log books and the logbook I had printed up received several compliments.

That was my recent experience at PSA. They said they appreciated the printout of the ELB.
