BirdDog Posted January 5, 2018 Share Posted January 5, 2018 Hey all, Looking for opinions on what you use for your AC logbooks. The previous owner of my AC just used separate sheets all floating around. so I am looking for a nice solution that is tidy and gas plenty of room. Do you just use the Daily Flight Record from RAA? Or a nice book etc? Thoughts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BirdDog Posted January 5, 2018 Author Share Posted January 5, 2018 Isn’t that just a maintenance logbook though?? What’s the inside look like?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FlyingVizsla Posted January 5, 2018 Share Posted January 5, 2018 Hey all, Looking for opinions on what you use for your AC logbooks. Thoughts? The Clear Prop shop (profits run this site) has a log book. If you ask, Ian may give you a view of the pages. Aircraft Maintenance Log Book We use the RANS log and RAAus logs and adapted sheets, particularly as an addendum to the Build Logs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cscotthendry Posted January 5, 2018 Share Posted January 5, 2018 I made up some log book page layouts in Excel. I print them B5 size, punch them with a two hole punch and keep them in a ring binder. I put in boxes in the sheets that apply to my plane and those that are required by the regs, and personalised it with the heading that has the plane rego etc. Then I made a cover sheet for the binder.

BirdDog Posted January 5, 2018 Author Share Posted January 5, 2018 Thanks all, I wish they would put a shot of the inside pages - hard to know what it is by just looking at the cover. :( I did think of making my own, but it would be nice if it were need and tidy. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pluessy Posted January 6, 2018 Share Posted January 6, 2018 I use my own page, starts and finishes with the annual (RA-Aus) maintenance record, kept in the aircraft manual in the plane. Any in-between maintenance is recorded on the maintenance record and all flight details on the added page. At the end of the maintenance record period, they all go together in a binder at home. 24-7749 log page.pdf 24-7749 log page.pdf 24-7749 log page.pdf Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BirdDog Posted January 6, 2018 Author Share Posted January 6, 2018 Yep - Same. My Maintenance Release is kept in the binder with the logs on a separate sheet, and is looked after by my LAME. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for sharing Hi BirdDog Just found the ones I did up for info. I keep these in an A5 size clip board in the Nynja and transfer the details into the RAA Log book record.

Yenn Posted January 18, 2018 Share Posted January 18, 2018 Bird dog, you mention a maintenance release. As far as I know RAAUs do not need one, but I find it is the easiest way of keeping track of hours and maintenance so I use it for my Corby as well as the RV.

BirdDog Posted January 18, 2018 Author Share Posted January 18, 2018 We use Page 2 of this document, and it stays in the logbook. Then replaced when it's all full. We keep them all in the logbooks. https://members.raa.asn.au/storage/maintenance-form.pdf Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
