Why this comparison matters

This comparison usually comes up at one of two moments. The first is an airline or corporate pilot looking for the most complete personal career logbook on the market, and for that role LogTen Pro has been the default answer for more than a decade and remains so for serious career tracking on the personal side. The second is a chief pilot or director of operations at a small flight department who realizes the team needs more than a logbook to run the week and keep the regulators, the owner, and the maintenance shop on the same page at the same time. For the first reader, LogTen Pro stays the right tool and a wholesale Sky Duty migration is not a recommendation we would make. For the second reader, the gap is operational rather than logging. A charter team running four aircraft cannot share a Gantt schedule out of a personal logbook, file a squawk to maintenance from the post-flight screen, scan a fuel receipt and tag it to the right tail and trip, or hand a co-pilot the same canonical view of the week without playing email tag. Sky Duty was built around that second job: the logbook is part of the picture, but scheduling, maintenance tracking, expense reporting, and fleet records are the reason a department adopts it. A pilot who keeps a meticulous LogTen career log on their personal device can still do exactly that on the side, with no change in workflow; the operational data the company needs to run as a business lives somewhere it can be shared with everyone who has to see it during the week. What that splits in practice is straightforward. The personal career log keeps moving on the pilot iPhone the way it always has, while the operational data the company has to share gets a single home that everyone on the team can read from on the same morning. The handoff between the two is light: nothing forces a pilot to abandon a logbook system that has worked for them for years, and nothing forces a department to wait for everyone to migrate before it can run a clean schedule.

Switching from LogTen Pro

You do not have to give up a logbook that works. Most departments adopt Sky Duty as the shared system of record for scheduling, maintenance, and expenses, while individual pilots keep their personal LogTen Pro career log if they prefer it. Export your history from LogTen Pro for your records, and from your first scheduled trip Sky Duty auto-fills logbook entries so the team stops double-entering flights. Your Sky Duty data exports to PDF and CSV at any time, so nothing is locked in.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Is Sky Duty a LogTen Pro alternative?
For a flight department, yes. LogTen Pro is a personal career logbook built for an individual pilot. Sky Duty is a team operations platform where the logbook is one part alongside scheduling, maintenance, expenses, and fleet records. If you need a shared system of record for the whole operation, Sky Duty is the alternative; if you only need a personal career log, LogTen Pro still does that well.
Can I switch from LogTen Pro to Sky Duty?
You can adopt Sky Duty as your department operations app while individual pilots keep their personal LogTen Pro career log if they prefer it. Export your history from LogTen Pro for your records, and from your first scheduled trip Sky Duty auto-fills logbook entries so the team stops double-entering flights. Your Sky Duty data exports to PDF and CSV at any time.
What does Sky Duty do that LogTen Pro does not?
Gantt fleet scheduling, maintenance tracking with inspection countdowns, expense tracking with receipt scanning, custom form templates, and crew roles and permissions. LogTen Pro concentrates on logbook depth and airline schedule import for individual pilots; Sky Duty concentrates on running a department.
Should airline pilots use Sky Duty instead of LogTen Pro?
For personal career logging, LogTen Pro remains an excellent choice and we would not tell an airline pilot to abandon it. Sky Duty is aimed at Part 91 and charter flight departments that need to schedule aircraft, track maintenance, and manage expenses as a team, not just log hours.
Does Sky Duty work offline like LogTen Pro?
Yes. Sky Duty is offline-first. You can schedule, log flights, and track expenses with no connection, and everything syncs when you reconnect.
