The major categories are group together in the summation pages. They don't care that you have 7 hours in a 172 J model, and 8 hours in a 172 K model.

Most apps will round the .x hours to the nearest hour. So If I put 500.7, it might round it to 501 on the app. I think 80 hrs difference from the logbook to the app is excesive but 2-3 hrs is normal. Since If I have 10 different types of airplane I flew, once the app round up and down each type it can be off a couple of hours.

I should specify. The online application. I do not have an electronic log book. I am all paper. If I round to the nearest whole number it will never be exact. It should be off by a bit from student pilot days. I could just be paranoid, just trying to make sure it is proper.

Why not? When I was doing legacy apps in 18-19 I had 3 logbooks and military records that spanned prior to 9/11 - I went line by line - aircraft, condition, etc. Ton of work but it was accurate. You're the one filling out the apps vs your records. Not sure why you're saying it can't be accurate? Your records add up to something - that goes on the app.

I could have grouple all the single non complex together, but again, this isn't what they asked for.

example 3.4x7=23.8 round each 3.4 toa whole which is 3......3x7=21
since I have around 60 different aircraft I had to add up multiple scattered rows in the book.
this was just the nature of my job. Sorry it doesn't fit into the norm. I am just trying to figure this out.

The online application asks for you to round the numbers to the nearest whole. This is what I did. Just for the hell of it I went back and added the exact hours and compared it to the whole numbers for each page. The result it 1-3 hours off per page. I did this with 8 pages and assume it to be valid for all. if you have 200 pages and each page is 1 hour thats 100 (technically it is be 200) hours right there, no? Make sense?

Perhaps I'm missing something.

Last quick question. Since we are rounding to the whole numbers, it should be normal for someone with 7000 hours to be off around 80 some hours from application to actual log book time. This is about 2 big log books worth of time. There is no way it will be accurate. Is there a specific margin of time time difference the interviewers are looking for? I would think it could be plus or minus 100 book. The aveage was 2 hours per page when I did a quick check. Sorry, probably a goofy question. I haven't had to deal with logs or interviews for a decade.

Nothing to be sorry about. Just trying to understand what you're saying. I don't understand rounding for each page. The rounding is for the final # on the app. C-172 time... I add all my 1.2s, 2.3s, 1.8s, etc. It could be hundreds of lines. They all add up to 1854.6. For my app, I input 1855 C-172 hours. Same for 145, 737, 787, IMC, PIC, etc.

people are applying for the Legacies these days and not using an app review company? Wow, must be nice for hiring to be this assured these days where you don't give a **** about how your app comes off. What a time we live in.
