The Real Batman Posted November 9, 2003 Report Share Posted November 9, 2003 Congratulations! The first job is the hardest one to get! I wish someone had suggested to me, what I am about to suggest to you. Take lots of pictures.... then add the special ones into your log book. 30 years later... you'll be glad you did. I started 10+ years ago after seeing the logbook of one of my peers, and now my log book is a joy to 'read'. I've included small stories with the pictures, and it's not unusual for one of my kids to pick it up and read it! It's a wonderful keepsake. In the world of electronic log books, it won't hurt to keep a hardcopy book with lots of pics of aircraft, people, situations and so on. I promise you.. you won't regret it! My only regret is that I didn't start doing it in 1972 when I started this wonderful career! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
407 Driver Posted November 9, 2003 Report Share Posted November 9, 2003 Good idea on the logbook pictures Batman. I was fortunate to see someone doing that when I started in this business in the late 70's (it was "squeaky" I think?) and I have put pictures in all of my logbooks ever since, (3 full sized books so far). I was getting a TC endorsement once, and was worried about what they may say when viewing my log....the Inspector loved it ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
