Flight logbook empty again!

Featured Replies

In an attempt to resolve this morning's issueย by reconnecting the XBox profile, I've gotten the dreaded "packages out of date" message and I've lost another 300+ hours of flight log ๐Ÿ˜ž Added to the 100+ lost in October 2020, it makes now absolutely pointless to rely on the flight logbook.

The irony of the story is that this is a cloud based game... and you can lose all your progress just by disconnecting and reconnecting to your MS profile.

Agreed. But thank goodness for their Excel, which is where I have kept my logbook for over two decades.

Has anyone ever figured out yet where MSFS logbook data is stored? On your PC? In the cloud? Accessible? Inaccessible? I like the idea of an excel spreadsheet to keep on one's own.

It's pretty simple to do.ย  Mine is actually an Excel workbook.ย  Among other tabs I have oneย that tracks hours by aircraft type/model, and one where I maintain a list of airports flown into.ย  It all started with import of a text file created from an early version of Flight Simulator, then from Flight Assignment:ATP.ย  Since Pro Pilot in the late '90s I just maintain it manually.

Hello I am using Volanta, it is easy to use, integrates with Simbrief, allows to import flghts from networks like IVAO / VATSIM and lets you export data if you want. It is a nice free app.

I can second this.
