|  Logbook Question?
well anyways my question is to each entry in your logbook have to be in chronological order. I use LogBook Pro to log my flights. well today i was totaling my paper logbook and something did not add up to my logbook pro. apparently i missed and entry. Well it turns out I missed a Multi flight where i was the instructor. My question is should i just put it on the first line on the next page or not? Its only 2.1 but its dual given in a multi and i can't seem to part ways with it. If i do put it down i am concerned that if i go to an interview with a regional it will look funny if the last entry on a page is may and then the first entry on the next page goes back to april. any feedback would be great. thanks adam |

Just go ahead and place the entry on the next available line. Make a note ragarding the past date. I have missed a couple of dates and when I reconciled with my electroninc logbook, placed them in the first available slot. As long as it's noted, it should be no problem.

Doesn't matter, put it wherever you want. If they ask, explain it exactly like you just did. No big deal at all. I'm sure I've done that very same thing in my logbook at some point, and neither Eagle nor Mesaba said anything when I interviewed. I think the guy at Eagle looked at every page of both logbooks. The guy at Mesaba just kinda flipped through while I was sitting there and said, "tell me about this flight," or "what kind of airplane is this?" Things like that. |

Had the same problem when I was totalling up my logbook. I just made a separate entry and noted "adjustment due to mathematical errors" and initialed it. I didn't MISS any entries, I just mis-added. I suck at math like that.....

That's why you use a pencil to add all the flight time up at the bottom. Erasers rule. All the entries are in ink, just total the bottom with pencil.

That's a good thing...if it's too perfect, then it's possibly questionable. I have heard of people redoing their logbooks to make them perfect and then, in an interview, being questioned as to why it was so perfect. The person I speak of is a friend of mine, former Naval Aviator, and did not get the job primarily due to the logbook, he feels. Yes, it should be very professional, but not perfect. TX |
