Most logbook entries in one month?
OK, a p*ssing contest to beat all contests!
Who has the most entries in one month in a service logbook?
I'll set the ball rolling with 43 in June 1979. This comprised of 44 hrs 5 mins, all in the Bulldog, of which 6.55 were solo and 34.10 dual. I flew on 19 days that month, and completed over half of EFT in about 25% of the intended flying phase.
It's high for two reasons - a) we started the flying phase of EFT late due to prior courses getting delayed in the winter. and b) there were 5 transit flights from/to Leeming/Topcliffe, as we were based at Leeming, but went to Topcliffe each day. One sortie was Wx'd off after take off.

Sorry maximo ping, I just thought it was another case of "my willys bigger than yours". No harm intended by my reply. Who cares how many hours one has, or how many log book entries does one have in a month.

Does 7 different types in 24 hours count for anything?
The final 2 were at night and all at a large flight test centre.
It was a deliberate attempt with most flights being productive. 2 were allocated as continuation training.

You will have to excuse dear old Kenny.....he has the odd lucid day but I guess today was not one of them, very sad when old folks start to lose their faculties in this way
all spelling mistakes are "df" alcohol induced

July 1995 Bristol UAS Laarbruch 69 sorties 67hrs
July 1996 Bristol UAS St Mawgan 61 sorties 57 hrs
July 1997 Bristol UAS St Mawgan 46 sorties 46 hrs
These were my Summer Camp figures and were typical of those of a UAS instructor at that time.

Milt - 7 types in 24 hours certainly does count.
On a totally un-related subject, I parachuted out of a Chinook three times before breakfast one day in September 1986!
No p!ss noted - though I hadn't considered those in un-powered a/c when I set the challenge. I was expecting that it'd be fairly easy for one of our boys in Green to win.
