Flight Logbook
The LogHat flight logbook is a personal, DGCA-format record of every flight you analyse. Unlike traditional logbooks that you fill in by hand, the LogHat logbook fills itself from the data already extracted during analysis — you only add the few details a flight log cannot know.
It is available on the Logbook tab once you are signed in, and it is included free with every analysed flight.
How it fills itself
Every time a flight finishes processing, LogHat reads the parsed telemetry and writes a logbook row automatically. The following fields are populated for you:
| Field | Source | |---|---| | Date (UTC) | Flight date from the log, falling back to upload time | | UAS model | The drone name / type on the flight record | | Duration | Total flight time computed during analysis | | Max altitude | Peak altitude from the barometric / CTUN data |
You never type these in. They come straight from the log.
What you fill in
Some fields are regulatory or operational and cannot be derived from telemetry. You enter these once per flight (or per drone) using the Edit button on any logbook row:
- UIN — your Unique Identification Number for the aircraft
- Class / Category — e.g. Small / Medium, VLOS / BVLOS
- Remote Pilot (RPIC) — the pilot in command for that sortie
- Location — departure site or operating area
- Purpose — e.g. survey, mapping, training, inspection
- Remarks — any free-text notes
Your edits are saved against that specific flight and persist across sessions.
Exporting your logbook
From the Logbook tab you can export the entire logbook in one click:
- Export PDF — a clean, landscape, DGCA-format document suitable for printing, audits, or handing to a regulator or client. It includes a header with your name, total sorties, and total air time.
- Export CSV — the same data as a spreadsheet, with a UTF-8 byte-order mark so Excel reads it correctly. Useful for importing into your own records or compliance systems.
Both exports reflect the current state of the logbook, including any manual fields you have filled in.
Per-flight export
In addition to the full logbook, every flight view has an Export Flight CSV action that produces a single-flight record: the flight summary plus the engine's "what needs attention" findings for that flight. This is handy when you want to share or archive one specific sortie rather than the whole logbook.
Scope and privacy
The logbook is strictly personal — it shows only flights uploaded under your own account. It does not include organisation fleet flights, which are managed separately under Fleet Management. Your manual logbook fields are visible only to you.
