Manual vs Electronic Logbooks
Can anyone explain why they would prefer to keep their flight records in an Excel spreadsheet over a manual, and easily transportable logbook?
Mine has stamps of approvals/revalidations etc and on wet winter evenings I sit and glance through it.
Working as I do with spreadsheets every day, I can appreciate the use of them for analytical purposes, but..........
... and if you do use the spreadsheet, how do you get on when the instructor or owner you want to rent from wants to check out your history - do you fire up a laptop? or are they really happy to look at a binder with a laserjet printout?
