Turbine time is easy to see in LogTen and can be viewed in a few different ways.
In order for LogTen to accurately calculate turbine time, the Aircraft Type must be accurately configured, specifically the Engine Type. Please see Types Tab on iOS for more information on setting up Aircraft Types.
Viewing Turbine Time on iOS
Turbine time can be quickly seen in the Analyze Tab.
To do this, please navigate to the tab by tapping, at the bottom of the screen on "Analyze", then, tap the group you would like to see Turbine Time in the context of.
For example, to see Total Turbine Time, tap on All Entries, and then read the time next to Turbine:
This Turbine Summary can be accessed from any of your Smart Groups or filters, so for example, you would be able to use the "Last 12 Months filter" to be able to see a breakdown of Turbine time in the last 12 months. Tapping on any of the filters in the "Analyze" tab, will bring up the breakdown as shown in the screenshots below:
Engine Types that will be included in this turbine time are:
Jet
Turbine
Turbo-fan
Turbo-prop
Turbo-shaft
Viewing Turbine Time on Mac
On the Mac, Time by Engine Type columns can be made viewable in the Logbook Tab by going to LogTen > Settings > Time > Advanced > Time by Engine Type. Click on the boxes next to the engine types you would like displayed:
Now columns will appear in the grid view of the Logbook tab. Read the totals at the bottom of the page. Remember, these totals are in the context of the group which is selected in the left side-bar, so to read total times, All Entries must be selected.

Using Smart Groups
Smart Groups can also be created to view different types of turbine time. The Smart Groups can be configured to show your PIC Turbine Time, or SIC Turbine Time, amongst others.
Other possibilities with Smart Groups include, but are not limited to, viewing your individual Jet time, Turbo-fan, Turbo-prop, etc. Each of these can also be configured to be shown as "Engine Type Time" as PIC, or SIC. For example, "Turbo-Prop SIC Time"
To find out about how to do this, please head to our Smart Group section, where you will find information on how to create a Smart Group, and our Popular Downloadable Groups section, where you will find our most Popular groups already created, and ready to be downloaded.
