Code of Federal Regulations

§61.51   Pilot logbooks.

 

(h) Logging training time.

(1) A person may log training time when that person receives training from an authorized instructor in an aircraft, full flight simulator, flight training device, or aviation training device.
(2) The training time must be logged in a logbook and
must:
(i) Be endorsed in a
legible manner by the authorized instructor; and
(ii)
Include a description of the training given, the length of the training lesson, and the authorized instructor's signature, certificate number, and certificate expiration date.

 

Shouldn't CFI entries be better than this?

Extensive shorthand using 

FAR chapter and element references as proxy to meet the requirement of describing  training given.

Barely legible hand scribbled logbook entries crammed into one block using ambiguous terms to describe training given.

We at                                       believe the CFI and student deserve the greatest tool bag to prep for their checkride, don't you?

And, because we think logbook reviews   shouldn't  be a puzzle, we created

COMPASS

VxCompass(R) Full Logo NoVX.png
COMPASS is digital with no space constraints. What you'll see is a full, unquestionable  accounting of a student's training. 
COMPASS auto-populates logbook entries that meet and/or exceed the FAR requirement for  descriptions of training given. 
COMPASS auto-calculates skills and flight time totals as they happen.  Summary totals of qualifying requirements are  accurate and precise.

COMPASS makes checkride

logbook review and approval so easy,

you can do it from your living room.
