Default Log Book

Did a search onthis forum and came up short.

Can someone point me to a download format or suggest minimum elements to capture to make one.

Thanks in advance.

I think that when you join JPO they send you one. I remember seeing them at KY Jets 09. but i am not 100% sure.

I recall a while back there was, I believe, a limited number offer from JPO for free log book with initial enrollment. I looked on their site to see if log books were available for purchase but did not see a link.

You get a free one when you join JPO. Alternately, you can purchase one from JPO for 6.00 I believe.

Check with Carol Brusa who is the membership secretary:

I made up this one:
http://www.geohei.lu/olin/data/model...log%20rev4.doc

Freeware, you can modify it has much as you want.
I have a binder with me and attach one page per plane.
In the total time and landing columns I write both actual flight value and total value.
Simple and easy...

DBlades - the JPO logbook is truly a great logbook. They are $6 each. However, if you are not a member of JPO, you can join now for half price - $12.50 - and you will
get a logbook and a vinyl JPO logo sticker for your flight box, plane, or whatever. You can go to the JPO website - jetpilots.org - and join there or send a check payable to JPO
to [email protected].

I just use an Excel spreadsheet with flight number, date, plane, spotter/witnesses, location, flight comments, and maintenance comments as headings. The data filters in Excel make it really easy to count flights since a given date, flights on a particular plane, etc and search let's me find key words in any field.

Regards,

Jim

Thank you Shaz,

I am kind of "old fashioned" for the log books. I used to work with an electronic one for my pilot logbook and got a big problem with it. I had to revert to a paper logbook and write 3 years / 2500 hours of duty manually...
Since then I've reverted to the good old trusted paper logbook for the job and the hobby as well.
As always: keep it simple and easy.
