I used the Jepp 27 look as well. I used prosoftbinders.com for the printing. A little pricy but I was extremely happy with the way it turned out. They have a quick turn around also if you need it.

My logbook review was similar to others. About 5 minutes of verifying my times then the rest was small talk type questions. At the end she asked me about vacation ideas because her and her husband were traveling to where I live.

Jepp 27 here as well for my interviews back in 2015. I had my logbook printed and shipped to me by FedEx using their online print services. I did a spiral binding on it with a clear cover and plastic back. The spiral binding allowed me to update the last few pages of the logbook without reprinting the whole thing. I just ordered the last few pages with the spiral binding and cheap covers. It's fairly simple to unscrew the binding, add the updated pages then re-screw in the spiral.

Curios what times they are looking for in the logbook review portion?

I see 1000 TPIC , Total PIC jet, 2500 hours total, Type Ratings (If you did this in the sim and didn't log it what would you put?) and failed check rides . Anything else? Do they care about Cross country time, night time etc?

Regarding the format of the logbook, when you send it to logbook solutions do they just print out all the columns? Some of the stuff I don't need in there like who I flew with, in and out times etc. as I didn't constantly log those (but I can go back and put it all in if need be)

Have your total time and pic time broken down for months 0-12 12-24 24-36 etc for a 5 year look back. They didn't ask about night or cross country. I carried a little spreadsheet of my flight time breakdown in to the log book review and they seemed to like that.

It was pretty laid back. Just have those times tabbed that they ask for in the interview email and that 5 year look back and you'll be fine.

I can all but promise you that if you received the interview invite, your logbook format will in no way have any bearing on your chances of being hired.

Agreed. If you interview, it’s your job to lose.

They are looking to see that your logbook adds up to your resume. It’s a cross check. The interviewer may even ask some questions based on the logbook (I was asked about some radial experience). It’s all part of “are you who you say you are” and “do we want to be in the airplane with you for x days?”

Whatever the format, be able to prove the mins, be sure the times add up, and that your logbook doesn’t look like a dumpster fire.
