Importing your previous logbooks

You can import your previous logbooks into WADER and consolidate all your flight experience in one place.

Once you are set as a new Wader user, you might want to bring your flights that are logged in a different logbook or provided by your airline or flight school system.

We are able to help you with that, depending on the format and where your current records are. Find the options below and, once you got the right file, simply send it to [e-mail] informing from which format it is and we will take care of it for you in no time!

If you are sending the file from a different email from your Wader username, inform us also your referral code, so it is easier for us to find you!

Struggling with disorganized and incomplete records and looking for dedicated support to help you get them in order? Or perhaps you're not particularly tech-savvy and prefer a tailored solution to ensure your previous records are correctly formatted, error-free, and ready for import? Check out our PRO plan, which includes priority support and additional services beyond the core logbook functionalities, including Custom Previous Experience Imports, Recurrent Airline/Flight School Imports and much more 😉

From another logbook

LogTen Pro

To import your data from LogTen Pro, first of all, make sure that your settings are as follows: go to Account > Settings > Display Options and select "Time Format" as "Hours:Minutes" and confirm that the "Use Zulu (UTC) Time" option is enabled.

Then go to the Reports tab of your LogTen application (it is available in both mobile and desktop versions), then select Exporters, and generate the Export Flights (Tab) report. Make sure to select this one and not the Dynamic Export Flights.

mcc / crewLounge PILOTLOG

If you have access to myCrewLounge portal, go to your profile and select the option to export your database records from PILOTLOG as CSV and JSON file.

If you still use the old mccPILOTLOG desktop application, go to the Query tab, define a date range (or simply leave it blank) and click on Search. You will get an option to Export Data. Select the option to save the report as CSV (if not available, choose the Excel format).

RB Logbook

To import your data from RB Logbook, go to the More tab of your RB application, then select Import & Export Data, and look for the Export to CSV option. Define the period you want to import to Wader and generate all the available report types: Flights, Aircraft and People.

To import your data from Smart Logbook, go to the More tab of your Smart Logbook application, then select Settings, as we need you to adjust some data formats before exporting it. In the Settings screen:

Others

We always try to add more options here, but due to lack of output standardization, we are unable to automate imports from some logbooks, such as Safelog, FlyGO, ZuluLog, and others.

If you have your hours logged in any logbook besides the ones listed, you may try to transpose them to our spreadsheet template.

💡 You may also consider getting a dedicated help with it through our PRO plan!

From other systems (airlines, flight schools, CAAs)

🌐 AIMS / eCrew

Export your logbook file from AIMS using the CSV format. If your version of AIMS limits the date period for export, you can export multiple files and send it to us.

🇷🇺 Aviabit

For Russian airlines using Aviabit, send us the CSV file generated by the system.

🇧🇷 ANAC (SACI)

Currently, the Brazilian CAA (ANAC) doesn't offer any integration that allow us to automatically retrieve your records from the digital CIV. So, to be able to import your digital CIV to Wader, you should follow these steps:

1) Log in to the ANAC system (https://sistemas.anac.gov.br/SACI/)

2) In the left menu, select CIV -> Declaração de Experiência de Voo

3) At the bottom of the page, you will find the option to export your records

This will generate a file (.xlt format) that you can open/edit with any spreadsheet program (such as Excel). You will notice that it doesn't include all relevant information for your logbook, such as start and parking times, PIC name and, most importantly, the aircraft type.

Due to that, you will need then to transpose this data to our spreadsheet template and manually include the missing data. Once done, just send it to [e-mail], and our team will import it for you.

💡If you would rather have someone to help you with this manual process, you may consider checking out our PRO plan, which includes priority support and additional services beyond the core logbook functionalities, including Custom Previous Experience Imports 😉

🌐 FlightLogger

To import your logbook entries, first go to My program page. Then, click in the Reports tab and then select the Logbook option. In the Logbook page, define the date interval that you want to export, then click in the Export as button and select the option for CSV (Excel).
