CSV Template
You can import your previous flight experience into FLYLOG.io using our official CSV template.This is the recommended method to ensure the most accurate and reliable import of your flight data.
Alternatively, you can import your data using your own CSV file — in that case, use the Column Mapping tool during import to match your file’s headers to the correct fields.
Fill in the columns with your flights (see below for more info)
Upload the file to the FLYLOG app in Import -> Custom import with Template
Template file is a standard CSV file you can open and edit in MS Excel, Apple Numbers, or Google Spreadsheets. Please be sure to convert your file back to CSV after editing.
To import your previous experience from other digital logbook check the Migrate from eLogbook guide. To import your previous experience from the AIMS eCrew system, or from your employer check the Airline Pilots guide.
💡 Pro Tip: Use standard ICAO type designators as your aircraft type codes for best results.
How it works
If your file doesn’t match the expected format, a column mapping table will appear — simply use it to assign your source columns to the correct fields. This ensures your data imports accurately, even if your headers differ. Make sure all mandatory columns are included for a successful import. 💡 Tip: For the most reliable results, we still recommend using our official CSV template as the primary file for importing your data.
