ForeFlight Debuts Logbook for European Pilots

European pilots can now comply with flight time logging requirements using ForeFlight’s logbook feature, with the release of new logbook region settings for the U.S. and Europe. The new feature delivers “a streamlined flight logging experience tailored to the needs of European pilots,” according to ForeFlight.

The Europe logbook meets EASA flight logging standards and guidelines by replacing U.S.-specific field names, recency tracking, and reporting formats. Other features include: prebuilt currency and recency templates aligned with EASA regulations; EASA-standard terminology for flight entry and aircraft profile fields; FCL.050 report for compliant flight time summaries; progress reports to track milestones toward EASA skill tests; and support for EASA licenses and qualifications, including ratings.

“ForeFlight Logbook is designed to make logging simpler, smarter, and more useful for every pilot,” said ForeFlight product manager Rachel Scarbrough. “With the new logbook addition, we’re extending that same ease of use to European pilots, helping them save time, track progress, and keep their records in line with the standards they follow every day.”

ForeFlight customers can switch to the European logbook, and it will automatically update field terminology, license and qualification tracking, and progress reports for skill tests such as PPL, LAPL, and night ratings. It also updates Europe-specific requirements such as flight entry field names (co-pilot, IFR, pilot in command under supervision), category/class designations, and support for European licenses, ratings, and qualifications.
