Logbooks
#22
I myself went with Logbook pro for PC. One time fee of $75 and I can run it on any windows device. Plus all the other options. Got in and entered all my past time. Glad to know the almighty calculator does not mess up as much as me. Bought a nice binder and printed it out. Looks way better than my older paper book. I do keep it updated though. Just in case.....

LogTen Pro X subscription for a Mac
I used to have LogBook Pro (still do, technically, I guess). Now I have a Macbook, an iPad, and an iPhone, and I don't want to have to buy a Windows emulator (like Parallels ($80)) and a new version of Windows ($119) just to run LogBook Pro (or use bootcamp and have to reboot my Mac every time I want to access my logbook). That's $200 for access to my logbook.
So, I was thinking LogTen Pro X. But, it seems as of March 2017, the new update (version 7.4) requires you pay a $99 subscription each year. This used to be an issue for the iPad and iPhone only, but is now a MacBook issue as well - right?
I'm not the most tech savvy guy. Am I understanding this correctly - $100/year for the Mac, and another $80/year (or is it $100?) for the iPhone or iPad, or pay $200 to get access to LogBook Pro (which I already own!)?

Looks like if you get the PRO version, which is Mac and iOS, it is $129.99/yr or $14.99/month
I haven't used Logbook Pro so I can't really compare the two. When Logten Pro started charging annually, I was upset, but decided to pay. I still use it and think it is probably the best e-logbook out there. I would definitely recommend for Mac/iOS even having to pay a subscription

So I have been using http://myflightbook.com since I got my CFI and it has been working pretty well. I am looking to start applying to the Regionals in a month or two, do you think it is worth moving on to a different elogbook like MCC? Does myflightbook not work well in the 121 world?

One thing I do is that I scanned every Endorsement, document and what not for my peace of mind, I do that with everything, I keep Electronic copies of almost every document I have so I was lucky enough to have my endorsements and records digitalized, printed them out and put hem with my log book (printed) and they seem to like it, (I got the job) Don't know how it will perform in 121 but as soon as I start I will post and Update unless somebody here already tried and is willing to share his experience. I'm going to take a look at MCC since lots of people here seem to like it.

Read the following articles. If your logbook stacks up to what they are looking for, you should be fine. If not, then maybe you want to try a different program. I personally recommend bringing a nice clean printed copy of your logbook with all the pages signed as IMO it is more professional. At the same time, more and more folks are only keeping digital logbooks, so I'm guessing they are getting more used to being handed a tablet.
