jeppesen professional pilot master logbook

I see many colleagues walking around with this logbook and they all seem happy with the size. Adding flights is easy and convenient, for flight training but also for your professional career later on. One of the most used pilot logbooks is this one: The Jeppesen Professional Pilot Master Logbook in black or brown. Still want to use a digital logbook? Take a look at LogTen Pro or mccPILOTLOG. The licensing authority and/or examiner needs to verify the accumulated experience so you would have to print all of those pages anyway. Besides you need to prove you fulfill all the requirements in order to unfreeze the ATPL at some point. Adding those to a digital logbook can be inconvenient and if it crashes you lose all the important data. The reason for advising against an app at the beginning of a professional pilot career is because you need to add a lot of signatures to flights while in flight training and PICUS programs.

That doesn’t mean you can’t use an app or program to log your flight hours but it might be best to do so as a back up. I also suggest that, at least until you unfreeze your ATPL, you should keep track of your flight hours in a paper logbook. I think the perfect paper logbook should be small and easy to bring along.

Here’s my opinion and guide to not making the same mistakes as I did.

However, I honestly regret the fact that I did not buy another one in the beginning of my flying career, simply because it is waaay too big.Ī lot of people asked me which pilot logbook I have and my thoughts on other logbooks. When I started my training I received a logbook from my flight school and I still use it today. But which one should you get? Finding the correct logbook is not that easy as there are so many of them on the market. A pilot logbook, one of the most important accessories for a pilot.
