Requirement to hold a log book
- A pilot must keep a personal log book [Civil Aviation Regulation (CAR) 5.51]
- A log book consists of a number of pages permanently bound together in such a way that pages may not be replaced or removed;
- An electronic record is not acceptable as a log book, however, a computer printout bound together in the form of a log book and maintained up to date is acceptable;
- All manual entries to the log book must be made in permanent ink;
- This log book is to be produced to the Civil Aviation Safety Authority (CASA) when requested;
- Falsification of a log book is a criminal offence;
- There is no regulatory requirement to carry a personal log book on a flight.

Car 139 does not require it.
Once upon a time, if it was requested you had to produce it but I cannot see that rule in the current CARS. This would contradict CAR 139.
If it is not L.A.W. ...LAW it is not in.
Hmmm?
It is in LAW. Part 5, 5.56

Hiho Wobbert, how goes the Twin Otter Dash thingy? There seems to be a fair variance on the requirement. When ever I look up the regs the safety device gets me every time, as soon as I start reading I drop off to sleep. 
I have heard there are people who can last two pages, urban myth I think, impossible.

The Twotter8 is great, comes with a coffee machine and everything (useful for staying awake during regulation reading) How goes the yellow beast?
