Announcing Logbook Pro for iPhone, iPod touch, and iPad version 3 |
NC Software is excited to announce the 3rd generation of our
popular flight log app for Apple's iOS devices - Logbook
Pro for iPhone, iPod touch, and iPad version 3. Version
3 is now available on the Apple App Store,
click here to download now.
With the version 3 app we've improved the entire
architecture of the app making adding new features and
functionality faster and more reliable. We've added exciting
new features such as a completely new and innovative
in-app schedule importer, a new weather screen to
easily and quickly check METAR and TAF for one or multiple
destinations, and we've completely redesigned the time zone
integration in the app. Now you can set the app into one
of three time zone options: "Device Local" (wherever your
device resides for those that travel, "UTC", and now
"Custom" where you can choose from a list of time zones
available on your device to lock it into a fixed time zone.
You can also specify a time zone option for syncing back to
Logbook Pro PC edition so you can log one way and sync back
to the PC edition another way, such as UTC.
More exciting new features include the new Facebook and
Twitter integration. When saving a flight you can now
share your flight to your Facebook Timeline or Twitter feed
and show off your flying prowess. Join our
affiliate program (free) and the link included with your
Facebook or Twitter post will have your affiliate tags
embedded so if anyone follows your link and makes a purchase
you'll earn commissions on their purchases. We've opened up
our affiliate program to the world now with the new payments
via PayPal support. Sign up today and then enter your
Affiliate ID into the Settings area of your app and that's
all you need to do. Those that prefer to be paid by PayPal

gen) as well as many other features for you to enjoy.

On Monday, April 23rd we completed a major upgrade of our
help desk. We take pride in rapid, responsive, and
accurate customer service around the clock each and every day
of the year, holiday, weekend, you name it! We are all
passionate about our products and services and most
importantly YOU, our customer. We have put in place
systems to help you find answers fast! Common questions
or questions we think could be common are created into
Knowledgebase articles. You can register to use the help
desk if you haven't already done so, the registration is
separate from our main web site and community forums.
If you have a problem or a question, try searching the help
desk from the main page as shown above. If you need to
contact us the best way is to
use the help
desk and NOT e-mail, this will ensure we
receive your message and it bypasses your e-mail system checks
and ours such as spam, junkmail, etc. and we will be certain
to get your message right away. Click the Submit
a Ticket option and fill out the details as best you
can and then we will respond shortly. You can always
come back and view prior tickets as well by clicking "View
Tickets" if you need to refer to a question you had
previously.
We typically respond to inquiries within MINUTES! If you
do not receive a response within one business day we most
likely did not get your message. If you do not see your
ticket in the "View Tickets" list and the status us not OPEN
or ON HOLD then please post to our
community forums to tell us you are unable to get through
to us. The community forums is an alternate means of
contacting us and should be used for any question that someone
else may be able to learn from.
We are also available during normal business hours via our
Live Chat system. On the lower left of the help desk or
on the bottom of the page in any of our other web sites you'll
see the Live Chat status. If it's green "online" you can
click the button to initiate a live chat session with our
staff.
We hope you enjoy our support systems in place to help you
efficiently. While we are unable to offer phone support
you will find our help desk to be a better solution to get
answers even faster with no hold, voice mails, or wait times.

Have paper logs? Let us enter them for you... |
We'll take the
hassle out of moving from paper logbooks to Logbook Pro by entering
all of your paper logbook flight data for you. Simply send us your
logbooks or photo-copies of your logbooks and we'll either add
to your existing Logbook Pro data file or create a new data
file if you're not yet a Logbook Pro user. Please
contact us prior to starting this service or paying your
data entry service deposit as limited slots are available. The fee paid is
applied towards the total cost of your data entry service. If
there is a balance due, we'll arrange additional payment, if
the deposit is in excess, we'll credit your account.
We have pilots
(all in the United States) that volunteer their time to
assist you and help them earn additional money for their efforts.
We do not "off-shore" this work and NC Software does not
profit from this service, it is all pass-through to the pilot
handling your job. After purchasing this service
we will contact you to proceed with shipping your logbooks and
receiving your contract to begin.
Purchasing this
service online is paying the deposit required and is applied
toward the total cost of the job when the job is completed. To
estimate the cost of your job please use our Data Entry
Service Estimator available by scrolling down at
http://nc-software.com/des.
Enter the number of lines we will be entering for you and then
click "Calculate".
The
price break down for this service is as follows:
- Service fee: $75
- Lines 1-500 $.25/line entry
- Lines 501-1000 $.23/line entry
- Lines 1001-2000 $.20/line entry
- Lines 2001 and over $.18/line entry
- Expedited service fee add $500
- If you opt out of having remarks entered we will
discount your line entry fees 10% as remarks are the most
labor intensive and take a lot more time to enter and
serve little purpose in a logbook other than sentimental
value
We offer two service levels as described on our data entry services page: Normal and Expedited services.
