Sure, I said if they wanted a definitive answer. I'm happy to BS all week. Shall I count your posts as well, or would you like to do that? I wasn't aware we were keeping score.

I’m not the one who said “TC is the only one who cares”. I obviously care, and so do you!

Reviving this for a question

ATPL holder, and trying to update my logbook and I no longer have access to records of individual flights just totals for each month. Do you think it would cause any issue to add a single line for the month and just add a comment detailing why it is like that? Trying to figure out how to log this.

Nope, no issue there.

You already have an ATPL and at this point the only thing one really needs to keep track of is being current.

For what it’s worth, I’ve been adding an entry in my personal log once a year with a blanketed statement. Not that anyone is going to review it….

Hope that helps!

Fortunately, I have such a thing and the Inspector was happy with my "Recency".
The F/O was not asked; good thing, he didn't have one and we would have been grounded.
Grounded?

Is there a regulation in England that pilots have to have their personal log book or books (6 in some cases apparently) on board the aircraft? There is not one in Canada.

Interesting. I have been ramp checked twice in Gatwick, in 2019 & 2020. Was not asked for a personal logbook either time.

Another thing. Since we are not required to have our personal log books on board the aircraft (in Canada anyway), how can Transport require you to prove recency on a ramp check?

I could see them asking you to prove it after you get home maybe, but not on the ramp.

Beyond the need to keep a log book, they are fun.
I write comments in mine, about cool people I met, something fun I saw or did on that trip, or about my passengers, weather, whatever.

That's what they do. You have some time period (24 hours or a week or something) to supply a copy.
