I do scan my log book every now and then as a back up copy.
I have my instructors signature, as well as her comments she adds at the end of each session. Logbook? I used the 'old fashioned' book where people write things in it with something called 'an ink pen'. What I learned was it was much easier (for me) to have a good old fashioned note pad and pen on my lap to jot quick notes down instead of using the I pad. Me? I showed up on day one in the plane with my I Pad, taking notes in the cockpit on the scratch pad for ATTIS, taxi diagram, etc. In addition you get all of the Metars, MOS, taxi diagrams, up to date charts and chart supplements, check lists, etc.
I use a both paper and digital.Ī a ForeFlight subscription on your I Pad will give you nice options to track things.
