What are the various logbooks?
Hi guys,
I have been searching around the internet, but only found a confusing amount of contradictory information...
Can someone pelase explain what the various logbooks are (and tell me if I have the general idea wrong) on a commercial aircraft.
- Aircraft Logbook : General log of every flight.
- Engine Logbook : Log of engine (hours / faults etc)?
- Aircraft Technical Logbook : How does this differ from the A/C Logbook? Are faults not recorded in the A/C Logbook?
- Maintenance Logbook : Record of maintenance on the A/C? Is this not recorded with the faults in the other logbooks?
Are there any others?
Is the idea of a "logbook" somewhat misleading? Rather than a ledger of each flight, are there several pages of info for each flight/sector?
Many thanks!
Martin
