What do you guys think about going to the interview at Eagle with electronic log books? What is the appropriate method of submitting it for review? Printing it out a certain way?

I can't speak for Eagle, but what I recommend if you want bring in an electronic logbook printout is to have it nicely bound at a place like FedEx Office or UPS store and make that your presentation logbook for the interviewer, but always bring your original paper logbook in case they want to see endorsements, sign-offs, etc. I heard the Eagle guys are sticklers when it comes to logbooks for correctness, etc. I've interviewed with a few regionals in my lifetime, most of them just took a glance at it, one airline didn't even look at it at all. The only interview I remember was for a Pt. 135 job, and the Asst. Chief Pilot really went through page-by-page, but it was mostly fun for him to see how many airport codes he knew

No electronic copies, bring your actual book and make sure checkrides are flagged

of course this was two years ago so....

Ugh I haven't kept a paper logbook for a year and a half now. Please tell me I don't need to go back and add every single flight in. Oh well.

Like i mentioned my info is a couple years old but some one mentioned earlier that Eagle is a stickler for log books. You could always have your electronic bound but this could be the determining factor as to how long you stay at your upcoming interview.

Short and sweet: Don't give them a reason to disqualify you, it may take some time to do the paper one but it'll be worth it if this is what you want

I disagree with FL450. With the new electronic logbooks, you can print them in any format...i.e. jepps, etc and then have them bound. If you really wanted to shine you can actually buy the jepp paper and then print onto the jepp paper from your electronic logbook. If it anything, it will make you shine more with your nice clean electronic logbook print out. My two cents...

Those of you that have interviewed already for this wave. Can you put up some gouges on the websites? Would be greatly appreciated.
