Hi

I've been happily using Aircrew Logbook by Andersson Design http://www.andersson-design.com/aircrew/index.shtml on my home PC. I've tried most of the others and as a UK commercial pilot I think it's the best. Just a few minor changes I'd make but the automatic calculating of Day and Night hours is brilliant.

What I am looking for is either something that directly integrates from my PPC to the Aircrew Logbook or something that calculates Day and Night hours in logbook format. I know you can use the Outlook Express Calander on the Ipaq to do this but it's very rudamentary and only acts as a link rather than detailing your flying hour totals.

I've tried 'Logbook Pro' and 'Airline Logbook' but these are more geared toward light aircraft and U.S. style of logging hours. I need something that you can put in you off & on blocks and it does the rest including day and night hours.

What can you recommend? Is there anyone out there that is a bit of wizz with these handheld devices that has created their own program that they maybe interested in sharing?

Eager to hear from you......

Regards

The fliteware logbook (http://www.fliteware.co.uk/) does all the automatic calculating you asked for, one little snag is that it does not come with a PPC interface....YET!

I know that that is being worked on though! It should be arriving shortly!

Thanks No Mode Charlie,

I'll have a look at that. Do you have any affiliation with the designers? If so, any idea when release date will be for the PPC?

Anyone else any solutions/software?

Thank you

Hi Dom

Try www.*********.co.uk , you may already see the banner on this site. It works out everything you need, enter off and on block times and day & night time is automatically calculated. It also calculates duty hours, duty/ sector pay (including factored sector pay) even prints a neat cv for you. The pocket pc interface is under developement but watch the site, shouldn't be long.
