How to Transfer from a Physical Logbook to Wingman Logbook
Converting Your Physical Logbook to Wingman
Many pilots maintain a physical logbook during their initial training or early career. Wingman offers a service to digitize this data so you can access, manage, and maintain your flying hours seamlessly in one place.
Service Overview
We provide manual logbook digitization where our team inputs your handwritten/printed entries into your Wingman account.
This service is suitable for:
-
CPL students with training records in physical format
-
Airline pilots looking to import past non-digital entries
-
Pilots flying with non-integrated operators or fleets without ARMS/airline sync
Step-by-Step Process
Step 1: Send Your Logbook Scans
Scan the pages of your physical logbook for the period you want to digitize.
-
Ensure scans are high quality and clearly legible
-
You can use mobile scanning apps like Adobe Scan, CamScanner, or Microsoft Lens
-
Alternatively, visit any Xerox or photocopy shop to scan the pages
Send your scanned files to:
support@wingman.zohodesk.com

Step 2: Review & Quotation
Once we receive your scans:
-
We calculate the number of entries
-
Share a quotation based on total entries
-
Provide a secure payment link
-
Estimate a timeline for completion
Charges:
-
₹15 per entry (approx $0.18 USD)
-
Example: 100 entries → ₹1,500 / ~$18 USD
-
100 entries typically take 4–6 working days
Step 3: Payment & Confirmation
Once you confirm and make the payment, we begin data entry immediately.
You will receive a confirmation email and timeline update.
Step 4: Manual Data Entry
Our team will:
-
Carefully log each entry into Wingman
-
Cross-check flight details and totals
-
Match formats based on CPL, airline, or customized formats
Step 5: Import into Your Wingman Account
Once entry is complete, we import the data directly into your Wingman account.
After import, you’ll be able to:
-
View and search flights by registration, type, sector, etc.
-
Export summaries for visa, job applications, or DGCA audits
-
Print a professional logbook with filtered totals
