Being af domestic pilot sometimes operating into airfields without an ICAO identifier, I use ICAO-identifieres when available - otherwise I use the airfields name in plain text (using at thin pen).

I use IATA, but just beacuse it saves me a letter each time
My logbook (jeppesen) has three examples, wichof two uses ICAO and one uses IATA, so I would say that its optional.
cheers

I use the 3-letter IATA, as it at least bears some resemlbance to the name of the airfield.
Our company uses IATA on our rosters, but ICAO on all the flight paperwork.
