How to read the log book.

[Galactic_eyes]

I know this subject has been brought on several occasions, sorry. But, how do you bring up the log book on fs9. I want to see how many hours I've logged. I am planning on recording my time myself in a log book that I have on the way. So, I would like to be able to record the fs9 time into my log book.  Thanks.

Ok, I went back to a reply that MattNW had left in a log book post. He stated," ...what good is a log book that you can't view. Well, that sucks. I've been flying to all of the airports in Georgia logging time for nothing. Oh well, thanks anyway.

Start a flight - any flight.  Hit Alt, Options, Logbook and there it is.

And if you want to know how much time you flew your aircraft go to : Documents and settings/username/application data/microsoft/FS9/Aircraft

There you'll find each of your aircraft listed and inside you'll see how much time had been logged on each one or engine (if it is a multi-engine aircraft)

Most if not all loogbook files are .TXT files and can be opened with notepad or word.

Heya Galactic Eyes,

Another thing that you can do is to pull up the default Cessna 182 Panel.  At the bottom of the Tachometer (RPM) gauge you have a meter that gives you the amount of hours that you fly an aircraft.  Just like an odometer in a car!  This gauge gives you a visual record in your cockpit so that you don't have to look up different records when you are flying.

If you are so inclined, you can even "borrow" this gauge and replace the Tach with it on any other single (piston)-engine light aircraft panel.

To my knowledge it only works (correctly) with single (piston)-engine light aircraft.
