The problem is, it's so easy to make a mistake - most recently it was the tail number of the airplane, and he entered 'actual instrument' instead of 'simulated instrument'.Īs far as I know, I have to reject it, have him correct it, and resubmit it. Primarily for occasional refresher training.

I have some clients who always want to just make the entry at home, and then submit it to me.

It easily take 2-3 times as long to make an entry than it does on paper.īut my question today is - is it possible for me as the CFI to edit an entry submitted remotely? I don't see that as an option. It's just generally a PITA from a CFI standpoint. As a CFI, I don't like typing in my comments, having it autocorrect various aviation terms, going back and fixing them, etc. But as a CFI, I dislike Foreflight Logbook - I don't think it's very well implemented, AND it routinely seems to overestimate flight time by about 0.2 (or it logs the drive home from the airport). I love electronic logbooks - as a pilot*.
