A single pilot logbook entry to track flight time and other details
By
AnyDB
The AnyDB Pilot Logbook Entry template is designed to help aviators maintain structured, digital records of their individual flight experiences. It captures key flight parameters, pilot time categories, aircraft details, and flight conditions in a format suitable for aviation professionals, students, and instructors. The template mirrors a traditional pilot logbook while leveraging the power of digital calculations, formatting, and badge-driven summaries.

Description
Each logbook entry corresponds to a single flight. It includes fields for aircraft type, registration, departure and arrival airports, flight start and end time, and total flight time. The user can log time breakdowns across categories such as PIC (Pilot-in-Command), SIC (Second-in-Command), Cross Country, Night, Dual Instruction, Instrument, and Simulated Instrument time.
The template also supports classification by type of experience (e.g., Solo, PICUS, FFS) and flight conditions (e.g., VFR, IFR, Day, Night). A photo upload section allows attaching an aircraft image, and a rich-text Remarks section provides space for notes or training feedback.
Badges dynamically summarize total flight time and flight date using visual formatting and expressions. A naming expression generates a user-friendly title for each record based on flight date, aircraft registration, and total hours.
