There are multiple ways for your instructors, examiners, and check pilots to
sign your records in ZuluLog. Each of these methods can result in a valid
digital signature:
- If your instructor or examiner has a ZuluLog account, he/she can directly
enter a signed flight record or endorsement into your account. Go to Profile
→ My Friends
to grant permission to your instructors. These records are signed automatically.
- In person: Use the Sign button from the ZuluLog app or website to display
a signature pad. Your instructor can use his/her fingertip or stylus to sign your
record digitally, and then enter name/certificate information in the first
Passenger field.
- Remotely: Enter your flight record on the Flight Entry screen. Click the
Sign button at the bottom, then click the "Request email/text signature" link.
Enter your instructor's information, then click Send Request to send a
signature request via email or SMS.
Hint: Save your CFI's contact information using the Add Friend icon in the
Passengers/Crew section of the Flight Entry screen. Then, when you enter a flight,
simply select your CFI as the first crewmember, and his/her information will
automatically display in the Request Signature fields.
Keep in mind that once a flight record is digitally signed, any futher
modifications to the record will erase the signature, and you will then have to
re-request a digital signature from your CFI.
