FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

A little more peace of mind.

Can I try it without an account?

Yes. Explore Live Demo opens a populated example dashboard without signing in. Demo records are not your personal log.

How do I save my own flight records?

Sign in using Google or a passwordless email link. Your records are saved privately and synced to your account.

Is this an official pilot logbook?

No. It's a personal training and expense companion, not a substitute for a regulation-compliant pilot logbook.

Is My Pilot Journey really free?

Yes. Tracking flights, training expenses, certificates, skills and lesson goals is free. Supporting the project is entirely optional and does not unlock features.

How does monthly support work?

Supporters may choose a voluntary recurring monthly contribution through PayPal. PayPal shows the charge before approval and handles subscription management and cancellation. You can use the app without contributing.

Can I cancel monthly support?

Yes. You control recurring payments in your PayPal account. Canceling support does not delete or restrict your My Pilot Journey account.

Do lesson goals count as FAA endorsements?

No. Training goals, skill self-ratings and lesson reflections are personal planning tools, not instructor endorsements, checkride recommendations or an official logbook.

What happens to my data if I stop using the app?

You can export your training data using the app's backup tools and manage your stored records from your account. Save a backup before making destructive changes.

Does it work on my phone?

Yes. My Pilot Journey works in mobile browsers, with a hamburger navigation menu and mobile-friendly flight forms.

Can I track skills practiced in a lesson?

Yes. Link practiced skills to flight sessions, plan goals for your next lesson, and review your progress over time. Self-ratings stay under your control.

What does the Live Demo contain?

Sample training expenses, flights, milestones, instructor details, skill ratings, practice history and lesson goal reviews. They are examples, not real pilot records or data from your account.
