Well...more fun in the doing than the buying, if you like that sort of thing.

Trouble is getting such data accepted officially. When starting to market
PC-Flightlog a few years back we put some considerable effort in getting it
accepted officially, but
it was resisted on the grounds that it would be too easy to change and too
difficult to authenticate.  However there is no doubt that electronic
addition and logging gets rid of the errors which humans commit, even if you
still have  to transfer it to paper.  We could of course transmit it
painlessly to the authoriities via flash sessions on the internet, but as
this data seems only to be needed when  "events" take place, I doubt it they
would want such an avalanche.
