It’s a Thursday evening and you want to take friends flying on Saturday night. Before you call them, you open the logbook and count: three takeoffs and landings to a full stop, at night, in the last 90 days? FAA rules (14 CFR 61.57) require exactly that before you carry passengers at night, and the logbook is where you prove it.
Currency questions like that come up constantly, and they are easier to answer when your recent flights sit in a clean, bound book rather than scattered across apps and scraps of paper. A slim hardcover that fits in a flight bag makes the check quick.
ASA’s SP-30 is a 104-page standard pilot log with a hard cover, sized for pilots who want a durable book without a lot of bulk.
Quick answer: The ASA-SP-30 is a standard hardcover pilot logbook from ASA with 104 pages, for student and certificated pilots who want a compact, durable book for recording flight time and the experience they use to meet FAA requirements, available on Skyfarer and at Skyfarer Shop.

Using your logbook to check currency
- Passenger currency. Count three takeoffs and landings in the same category and class in the preceding 90 days before carrying passengers (14 CFR 61.57).
- Night currency. For passengers at night, those three takeoffs and landings must be to a full stop at night.
- Flight review. Find the date of your last flight review and confirm it falls within the preceding 24 calendar months (14 CFR 61.56).
- Instrument currency. If you fly IFR, check the approaches, holding, and course tracking logged in the last six calendar months.
Pilot tip: Mark night landings with a simple symbol in the remarks column the day you fly them. When you need to prove night currency, they jump off the page.
