Why I Finally Switched to a Digital Pilot Logbook

For years I’ve used a traditional paper pilot logbook, but as my flying hours increased, keeping track of totals, currency, ratings, aircraft types, and annual flying hours became more difficult. In this video I explain why I’ve started using a digital pilot logbook, what problems I was trying to solve, and why I decided to give Logbook.aero a try. This isn’t a sponsored review—just an honest look at how I’m trying to keep my flying records organised as a UK general aviation pilot. 📥 Try Out Logbook.aero: https://www.logbook.aero/r/825245 In this video: ✈️ The challenges of paper logbooks ✈️ Why spreadsheets weren’t enough ✈️ Digital logbook options ✈️ My first impressions of Logbook.aero ✈️ Tracking hours, currency and flying history ✈️ Why I’m still keeping my paper logbook What do you use to track your flying hours?
