Does anybody know of JAR logbook software that has a PDA synchronisation?

I currently use Fliteware Logbook 2 which does just about everything I need, but it does not have PDA synch.

I have played with NC Software Logbook Pro, and the PDA synch is excellent, but the software is optimised for FAA and not great for JAR (ie no autocalculation of times, no autonite, flight times only in decimal format, no separate columns for departure/arrival, no easy way to log JAR currency requirements, no simulator database).

Check here Logbook Pro and APDL Electronic Flight Log Software (http://www.logbookpro.com/)
But need to pay!:ugh:
I use my own logbook create on base JAA logbook into format M. Excel, but without synchronization between laptop and PDA.:ok:

Thanks but I tried Logbook Pro and it is very much geared to FAA market and misses loads of features needed in JAR land.

I also found Stratosoft Logbook, and the specs seemed ideal - built for JAR and also with PDA synch. But unfortunately the PPC synch is very poor and having spent all morning trying to get it to install and work I have given up with it.

Pilots Pal (http://www.*********.co.uk) is supposed to be very good. A lot of colleagues in work use it. Full demo and product info on the website. I'm stilll on paper logbooks at the moment but seriously looking at getting this one in preference to the others available on the market.

Cheers.

Swift-E-Logbook (http://www.flyhoward.com/Logbook.aspx) is built for JAR and has all the features you mention.

It will sync with a Pocket PC running Windows mobile. See the website for screenshots and a free demo download.
