Frequently Asked Questions
How many years of flight data can the Jeppesen Professional Pilot Logbook hold?
It is built to track up to ten years of flight data. With 256 pages of green ledger paper, it gives commercial pilots, corporate aviators, and flight instructors ample room to record years of flights along with the comprehensive annual summaries that make long-term career tracking and currency review straightforward.
What does each page track and what is the column layout?
Each page uses a professional seven-column layout that captures the essential flight details, from flight times to aircraft specifics. It is designed to record everything from complex multi-engine flights to student instruction hours, giving commercial pilots and flight instructors the detailed breakdown they need for accurate, professional aviation records over a long career.
Does it include annual summaries and a place for certifications?
Yes. Beyond the flight entry pages, the logbook adds dedicated sections for aircraft annual summaries and pilot certifications that simpler logbooks often leave out. These summary pages make it easier to total your time each year, review currency, and keep certificate and rating information together for dependable long-term career tracking and record keeping.
How many flight entries can it record over its life?
With 256 pages of green ledger stock and room for many entries on every flight page, the logbook gives the typical professional pilot roughly ten years of recording capacity. That generous page count, combined with the annual summary sections, is why it suits pilots who log frequently and keep records across an entire career.
Why are the pages green and do they prevent ink bleed-through?
The logbook uses eye-friendly green ledger paper, a long-standing professional choice that reduces eye strain during long documentation sessions and helps prevent ink bleed-through. The 256 pages of 24-pound smooth-writing ledger stock keep entries crisp and readable over years of handling, whether you are in bright sun or dim cockpit light.
How big is the logbook and will it fit in a flight bag?
The logbook measures 6 and three-quarter inches by 11 and one-quarter inches overall, a compact size made to slide into a flight bag without bulk. Despite the portable footprint, it still gives you a generous 5 and one-half inch by 9 and one-quarter inch writing area on every page for clear, detailed entries.
Is it durable enough for daily cockpit use and does it lie flat?
Yes. The premium construction features a reinforced binding that lies flat for easy in-cockpit writing and stays intact through years of daily handling. Built for lasting durability, it holds up to demanding conditions, which is why professional pilots and flight instructors rely on it for the records they keep across an entire flying career.
Is this logbook FAA approved, and does the FAA accept paper logbooks?
The FAA does not run an approval program for paper logbooks, so none is formally FAA approved. The agency does let you keep required records on paper, and this logbook uses the industry-standard professional format that captures the flight times, aircraft details, and conditions of flight pilots record under FAR Part 61.51, including multi-engine and instruction time.
Who makes it and is it a good gift for a student pilot or flight instructor?
It is made by Jeppesen Sanderson, drawing on more than eighty-five years of aviation expertise, which is a big reason it has become an industry standard. The trusted format, durable construction, and room for about ten years of flying make it an excellent gift for a student pilot, new commercial pilot, or flight instructor.
