I should already know the answer to this but I don't so here it is -
what do you do if log books for a glider have been lost w/no hope of
recovering them?



A few years ago, I started scanning my log books after each entry.
Doesn't take too long and makes a nice backup. Plus, when I recently
had to send some information to my IA, I just sent him the PDF via
email.

That's not a half bad idea! And for even more "security" you could save
a copy to a remote website. The easiest way to do that is to start your
own (free) egroup on yahoo or such and then save your copy in the
"Files" section of the group. This way, if you have a computer crash at
home, you will be able to recover the data from the egroup site.
