Logbooks
Folks,
Not sure if this is posted in the correct section but can't find a suitable one. Logbooks...!
Mine is almost full and have been looking around for a new one. Is the CAP407 now fully compliant with JAR (EASA) or is it still out of date? CAP 807 doesn't mention anything and neither does the CAA's own website.
I currently have a Jeppessen Professional logbook.
Am flying jets and instructing.
Ta.

Does "JAR compliant" or "EASA Compliant" actually mean anything?
I have an elderly Airtour (now Pooleys) commercial logbook, that has no statement of compliance with anything.
Holding CAA & JAA original licences plus FAA and Transport-Canada piggyback licences, none of them have ever had the slightest concerns about it.
I suspect that if you've had no problems with your current Jeppessen logbook, buy another one the same. If you prefer something else buy that - but there really seem to be no issues anywhere.

Fairly sure if you record date, time, duration, PIC/Instructor/Dual/Co-Pilot and IF with total time then you could write it on just about anything, it's not what you write it on but the content 
.
I'm fairly sure there's a summary of what needs to be logged in PART FCL but I can't remember where and have no desire to go looking for it again.

As has been said, it doesn't matter in what manner you make a record, as long as you do and that it includes the appropriate items.
From EASA Part-FCL:
From the ANO:
It's up to you whether you choose a traditional hardback bound logbook of some kind, a software program (which you may print out when needed), or some bits of paper in a binder. It doesn't matter what format you opt for, as long as you keep the required information.
I suspect "JAR-Compliant" is simply marketing speak for, has suitable columns and spaces to record the specified data.
From EASA Part-FCL:
FCL.050 Recording of flight time

CAP 804 Section E
