The data is all in a sqlite file from my logbook software! I wrote a little post about extracting the data here: https://jameshard.ing/posts/querying-logten-pilot-logbook-sq...

I have only seen a few clips from The Rehersal (the bit with Sully listening to Evanescence), so I don't have much to go on. Pilot communication is definitely something that we spend a lot of time talking about and training (under the larger banner of CRM - crew resource management), and in my experience the industry is making real efforts to be better in this area!

Hey! I used to work for the company that makes that logbook software. That was a great job. The CEO was an amateur pilot himself and really, really loved software product design.

It's been over a decade, but it's cool to see that software still being iterated on and pilots still loving it.

Even cooler to see someone such as yourself extending its usefulness by leveraging the data. Cheers!

Awesome!

You can tell that the software is created by people passionate about aviation (and also passionate about nice UX, something that most all of the Logten competitors really lack). Do you remember if my guess about using NSDate internally was correct?

[im_down_w_otp]

"passionate about aviation" and "passionate about nice UX" definitely described Noah and the rest of the team!

Honestly, I don't remember Re: NSDate. It was many jobs and Dante's levels of burnout ago. :-)

What I remember from that time was a lot of fighting with Apple's early iCloud syncing. Because it had a habit of being incredibly fraught and flakey using SQLite-backed Core Data stuff.

Cool, thank you for the response and details.
