Your logbook is yours to take with you. Jetlog exports the whole thing, or any filtered slice of it, in three formats.

Export formats

  • EASA Logbook: an official EASA-format PDF, laid out to match the familiar EASA logbook layout, ready to print or hand to an examiner.
  • Excel Workbook (.xlsx): every field, one row per entry, editable and re-importable.
  • CSV Files: the same data as zipped .csv files, for spreadsheets or another logbook app.

EASA-format PDF export is a formatting convenience. It lays your entries out to match the standard EASA logbook layout, but it isn’t a certification, and no logbook app holds one. Nothing is being “signed off” by the export itself.

How to export

  1. On the Logbook tab, tap ⋯ (top right) and choose Export / Import. You can also get there from Settings › Export / Import.
  2. Pick EASA Logbook, Excel Workbook, or CSV Files.

By default this exports your whole logbook. To export only part of it, filter the list first (see below). The Export / Import screen always exports exactly what the Logbook list currently shows.

Exporting only part of your logbook

To export a subset, for example the last two months for a licence application or a type rating renewal:

  1. On the Logbook tab, tap the filter icon and set up Filters (date range, aircraft, or any of the bulk editor’s filters). Close the filter sheet.
  2. Tap ⋯ (top right) and choose Export / Import. The screen now shows “Filtered logbook” instead of “Whole logbook”, with a count of the matching flights and sim sessions.
  3. Pick EASA Logbook (or Excel/CSV).

The EASA PDF lists only the filtered flights, but its running grand total still counts your whole logbook by default. If you want the PDF’s total to match only what’s on the page, turn off Carry totals from all flights under PDF Totals on the Export / Import screen before exporting.

You can also hand-pick individual flights instead of filtering: in the bulk editor, select the rows you want and use Export Selection. A selection-based export doesn’t offer re-import (there’s no filter to re-apply it against), unlike a filtered or whole-logbook export.

Re-importing after editing elsewhere

Exported CSV or Excel files round-trip. Export, make bulk edits in a spreadsheet, and re-import the file the same way described in Importing from another logbook. The review screen shows exactly what’s changing before anything saves. This also works for large structural edits, like renaming an aircraft registration across dozens of rows, that go beyond what the in-app bulk editor covers.

Data portability

CSV, Excel, and EASA-PDF export are Jetlog’s data portability story. There’s no separate “GDPR export” tool. These three formats already give you a complete, structured copy of your logbook, any time, subscription or not. See Managing your subscription & data for how account deletion works.

Your next flight can log itself.
