Recalculating the Aircraft Logbook

Recalculating the Aircraft Logbook

If there is a need to recalculate the Aircraft Logbook, the record that is selected on the AC Log tab must be a user-entered log. The Recalculate will not work correctly if a flight log entry is selected
when the Recalculate A/C Log button is selected.

1. Open the Aircraft Record for the aircraft that needs the times to be recalculated and go to the AC Log Tab.

2. Select the most recent user entered log entry (in some cases there may only be one user created logbook entry that was made when initially using FOS).

3. Click on the "Recalculate A/C Log" button.




4. You will receive the popup below. Click OK.



5. Go to the Times Tab in the AC Log and verify the times are displaying correctly.
