I use logten pro and just have how much of each flight was IMC, day, and night, without the IMC time being split. So if I had a flight from 3 years ago that was 50min night and 15min IMC I have no idea how much they overlapped. I'd literally be making up stuff/guessing to put into the app.

Really? So if you have a flight that departs in the daytime, and ends in the night time, and shows .5 IMC, your logbook knows whether your IMC is day or night?
I’m pretty sure 99.99999% of professional pilots these days are using and electronic logbook, but that isn’t a stat anyone’s tracks.

You'd think that if stopping stone steppers was a priority, then seemingly good FOs would be more desirable than anyone with 121 PIC.
I decided to go to Spirit and didn't apply anywhere else, but as an FO to FO hire, I also can't realistically go anywhere else.
Given it will be at least 5 years before I have anywhere close to the TPIC mins for any other job, it won't make sense then to go to the bottom of another list, just so I can upgrade again and own 4 jet skis instead of 2.

lol, you’re in the 1%. I haven’t talked to a single person that breaks that down. You have daytime, nighttime, and IMC. I’ve been doing this a year or two and can’t name one person who has daytime IMC, and nightime IMC in their logbook because nobody cares and it means nothing.

Just estimate it conservatively as best you can and if they even bring it up say you tried your best. I really doubt that **** matters unless you blatantly lie about something.
