What is an Individual Flying Record?

• A. Line by line entry since the last annual review or PCS for the Person
• B. A cumulative summary of flight hours for the career
• C. A weekly report of flight activities
• D. The official logbook maintained by the unit pilot to track flight hours

Answer: (A)

An Individual Flying Record is a line-by-line log of a service member’s flight activity, updated after each flight, starting from the most recent annual review or Permanent Change of Station (PCS). Each entry records details like date, aircraft, duration, and purpose, creating a running ledger for the current evaluation cycle. This format helps supervisors see progress and remaining training needs within that cycle, rather than presenting a lifetime tally. It isn’t a weekly snapshot or a complete career total, and while a unit maintains an official logbook for formal hour accounting, the individual flying record focuses on activity since the last evaluation or move.
