Default Logbook for Interviews

Greetings.

I will be interviewing for some regionals in the not too distant future, likely the next month or two. I use Foreflight exclusively for my logbook and want to make sure my logbook printout is good for interviews. Does anyone have some advice on getting a Foreflight logbook printout bound? I will likely go to FEDEX and see what services they offer, but wanted to know what others recommend and have used for interviews.

Thanks in advance.

Anthony

I bought a leather medical binder so the rings are on the narrow side of the page. I found it online, but it’s been too long for me to remember the website. I have decent paper to print on, and I can keep it up to date on my own without going to a print shop. I also added a small summary section before each interview.

Of my several friends who are currently at the regionals (and my personal experiences), only about half of the time anyone ever actually wanted to look at a logbook. Sure, we were always told to bring it, but don't get too far into the weeds about presentation.

If anything, just make sure it shows that you've met the minimums for ATP or R-ATP.

I printed mine from logbook pro double-sided with a cover page and then had the ups store spiral bind it for me. The also added front/back plastic sheets to keep it sturdy. Looks great and was a cost effective solution. They could probably print it as well for you if you dont want to go through the hassle.

Yeah that's what I did, pretty easy. Looks nice too.

I bought one of their overpriced binders and printed it myself. Was a pain, but looks great and starts off an interview well.

Ditto, although it wasn't UPS it was a different store. It's gotten quite a few complements.

Use the green paper offered by Kinko’s. Almost a perfect match to the Jepp green logbooks...
