the good lord knows i'm not a political analyist, but here's my take on women like you...kill your self...we'd all be better off without you...

Linky

^^^funny sh!t^^^:D
 
In my new logbook I have every single entry with the exact same kind of pen, except for 1 signiture that was made in the back for the logging of ground instruction.

My old logbook (first one) has all kinds of ink in it. This second one is just a continuation, not a rewrite.

Should I be using different ink every so often? I don't want it to look like it was rewritten or padded.

Funny thing is that i don't have any signatures in my logbook.....


I don't see why that would cause any raised eyebrows....:rolleyes:
 
The airline's main concern is if it looks like you just got a new logbook and gave yourself 250 hours of extra time so you meet ABC Airlines minimum flight time requirements.

Does all the writing look the same from entry to entry? Does another person make an entry every once and a while or so (say another CFI or whatnot)? Is it the exact same pen, not just a generic black pen? Are some of the entries rushed and sloppy penminship and others have perfect letters and look like there was some time taken? Does the logbook look like it has been used for actually logging time over a matter of months/years?

Seriously, I wouldn't worry about it if you are not padding your logbook. It's one of those things that you don't think about until you actually see it done and then it sends up immediate 'somethings wrong here' flags.
 
I use an excell spreadsheet and print it out once i have a page filled up. Looks a lot better than my crappy handwriting!!

Never een crossed my mind about somebody padding their logbook... i guess if you just barely have the minimums for the job and you all of the sudden logged a lot of time that might send up some flags... I don't think you need to be that paranoid though, they'll see straight through any padding during your simulator evaluation.
 
Eeeeek!

I have used the exact same pen to log the last 3000-3500hrs of flight time... I keep it with my logbook so it is consistent.

I guess I'm doomed. :)
 
Hawker, if you rewrite your logbook you can pad your hours for the last few years. Adding .2 to every flight adds up over the last 1000 flights.
 
I logged over 2,000 rounds in the Belt Fed column, when it really should have gone in the Subgun column...can I use white out to correct it? And if I do, should I use white white out or that green white out?
 
OK!! time for a stupid question:D

What times should add up to what? I think I know the obvous one, SE + ME = TT, to include other categories if applicable. What about type of time, should any of that add up?

Thanks

SE + ME should equal total time. For the rest of it, the best $0.02 answer is, for your logbook, not necessarily.

There will be times when you are logging both PIC and dual received, e.g., working on your instrument. Don't confuse an airline app with your logbook. Airline application flight time grids vary from company to company. The best thing you can do is maintain an accurate logbook and fill out the flight time grids as instructed, even if the grid ends up shorting you on PIC, etc. Yeah, I know it isn't fair and not congruent with Part 61 logging regs, but that's just how it goes, sometimes.
 
If you rewrite a logbook with a brand new one, you better be prepared to explain why the logbook copyright date is more recent than many of the entries. Interviewers have been known to check it.

That's pretty funny! :)

It would save them the bother, TAB Express F/O and TopGun-Mav, of paying the TAB.
 
Hmmmmmmm, something tells me that if he got the job we would already know by now.
