Signing the logbook
So have come to the stage of a flight test after working logging time for a while. Interested to see who has been getting someone to sign off their logbook saying flight times are legit etc and who hasn't. Most of my time is single pilot and really don't know if it should be the chief pilot, if i should be doing it or if it is really necessary at all.
Interested in how you other blokes do it!

Hey,
I wouldn't stress too much about having your book signed etc. Some CPs will like to look over your book every now and then, while others work on the idea that NOBODY makes false logbook entries and should you choose to, then you WILL eventually be found out and branded a cheat and low c*&t for all of eternity by your peers.

At a previous GA job (flying single pilot, as you do), our logbooks were routinely audited to check correct logging of flight times and then signed off by CP. I vaguely remember it being part of CP responsibilities under Part 135 certification.
No hassle though if you are logging what you should be.

A habit that I got from Mil time is to create a monthly and an annual summary in the logbook, with a signature on each to verify accuracy. As a C.P. I stamp and sign off pilot's hours when requested, but a well presented log book with regular signed summaries goes a long way when shown to a prospective employer

When I passed my PPL, the instructor told me that it was now ok for me to sign the "entries certified correct" part of each page of the logbook, whereas before the instructor did it and actually checked that the correct hours were entered.
I don't know whether what he told me is correct or not. hmmm
