Re: Do employers use flightaware to verify flights in logboo
I sit corrected.
I sit corrected.
Do employers use Flight Aware to verify flights in your logbook?
Why is that? I know it's true and all, but what does it really matter?The thing is all it takes is a call or message to them and you can have your tail number 'disappear' if you will. Many of the Fortune 500 companies or any company a/c will be 'unavailable' at the request of the owner.

Keeps shareholders in the dark as to how often corporate resources are used for personal or pleasure travel. Not many big corporations have operations in Aspen, for instance, but it's a safe bet that most corporate jets make trips there every winter.Why is that?

Cuz you KNOW I'm stalking you day and night, you sexy beast!Matt, my tailnumber is not blocked, so you can stalk me on that straight line between here and Henderson, NV, and back; and there and back again, and again..............

We're a few weeks early for an April Fool's joke, so against my better judgment, I'm going to assume this is a serious post.yes they do use it.
Eagle not only uses flight aware for random spot checks, but they require ALL receipts for every hour of documented flight time in your log book.. and they call previous employers to verify every single hour you logged with such company.. If you don't have a receipt or proof of the time on your app they ban you from ever re-applying and notify the FAA for falsification..
Or if the airline wants to do it the easy way, they just browse on JC and look for people dumb enough to try and publicly figure out ways to pencil-whip a logbook without getting caught.. match up an email address.. and your screwed lol.
That's kinda what I figured, I just wouldn't want someone to see that and not apply to a job they're fully qualified for simply because they didn't keep all their flight school receipts. I sure as hell didn't.come on now aloft.. we all know about "ass"umptions![]()
I'm not saying you rat people out and give out emails Doug.. it was a poor attempt at sarcasm lol.:crazy:

I have seen CFI's create a "one day collect entry", showing 3 different callsigns, with nothing but the names of students, with total time 8.0.
There is no way of ever figuring out if these flight actually took place, since there are no aircraft logbooks to refer to. Good luck finding details.
