On a related topic:

I've got the electronic logbook which I've been using as a "primary" logbook now that I have up to the CFI/II done...since I won't need a signoff for ATP, I figure all is well. Also, I put my paper logbook(s) in the safety-deposit box at the bank (until I get the HP and/or high altitude endorsement...they'll come out for that).

Would y'all out there recommend just copying (scanning) the endorsements (hp/complex/altitude/etc) in the back of the book for interview time? My thinking is when I print out the logbook, I can print those out and put them in the back. However, since I'm logging the PIC time in those airplanes (well...not hp or high altitude yet, but...you get the point) one would imagine I would have to have the endorsements.

Not worried about showing it to the feds...if they ask, I can print it out and take it to them since they're supposed to give me a reasonable amount of time...more concerned about future interviews.

Any advice?

PS
have your friend get an electronic logbook...during training it was more work (had to write it in and type it), but now I just print out once a month and put a hard copy in the fireproof safe as well as e-mailing it to myself and putting it on a CD (in the fireproof safe). Am I anal? Yeah...but...it beats worrying about getting it stolen... IMO

Force was used to take a car away form me, would that qualify as being robbed?
Yes...that's a form of robbery. B and E of a motor vehicle is a different crime. I would guess stealing a car or "carjacking" is probably defined a little differently than robbery though. But you were definitely a victim of a robbery.

So is the big word we're looking for here: Vandalized.

And why does this matter? :D
In the grand scheme of things? It don't matter :) But I just got back from my buddies place and I have a mean hangover...just thought I would share the love! Hahahaha.

Heck, you guys can call a thrust lever a "qwidgybo" (simpson reference) for all I care. The band was rocking last night and the pitchers of Bass Ale were going down good...did a lot of dancing with wife and friends to some white snake and head banging 80's music. My buddies wife is pretty dam hot, so it was fun dancing with her as well. Some broad was trying to pick up her old man, so when I struck up conversation with her, she starts mimicking me with Dice Clay...I'm thinking this chick knows what time it is.

Oh shoot...but anyway, back on the stolen log book thing! If you catch that dirty bastage that stole your log book...make sure the cops know that log book is worth 10's of thousands of dollars and is an official document...FAA regs require you to prove proficiency with that thing. Make sure the cops and the prosecutors attempt to get big felony charge enhancement on the sucker...not the run of the mill B and E on a motor vehicle crap.

hmm...that's pretty insightful...figure out how much money you've spent on training and getting to where you are...that's how much your logbook is worth...that could be....a lot of money.

For a drunk man, you're thinking pretty clearly...I'm so proud!

Actually...just hung over. Last night we took a cab back to my buddies place and I paid and tipped the cab driver. The people who drove us to the bar knew the band and are a team in professional truck driving, that couple can't afford a DUI either...the other guy in our party is Citation 135/91 driver. 20 bucks for a ride home is cheap...and the cab driver was a pretty cool dude, funny as hell.
 
Short explanation:
Robbery - violent crime
Theft (or larceny, in some states) - property crime.

Just out of curiosity, what can someone do with a stolen logbook????
Depends...think of the identity theft angle. Soc Sec number could be in log book. If he's a cfi, he'll have tonnes of soc sec numbers in there...of the students.
 
He's not he was about to take his private checkride. It was 3 days away lol. Sucks I know. As far as what the logbook is good for is nothing. However when jacking the radio they saw a bag and when they picked it up they probably felt the weight and figured there was something good in it. Which there was. His headset. Although we are going to go look in pawn shops for them.
 
more dumber

Looks like it's working.............;)
