Guys - Just curious if everyone logs oil additions and topoffs and if so, what log book do you use?  Right now I make a note in the flight logbook but started thinking maybe I should log these additions in the engine log book where the oil changes go.  What's everyone else doing?

I keep a fuel/oil log in a separate spreadsheet.  I don't consider adding a quart as a maintenance item, so I don't see a need to enter it in the mx records, but I still keep track of how much oil the plane is using.

I have a separate notebook for logging oil addition, VOR check and database updates that I keep in the plane. It is a small bound notebook I divided into its different sections for each. It is stored in the seat back pocket with the POH and emergency procedures

Ditto to Cruiser.


I keep a single sheet in the plane where I log individual flights, VOR checks and oil added between changes.  It's very helpful in terms of monitoring oil consumption at a glance.

Actually, that sounds like a good idea to keep a seperate fuel/Oil log.  Right now I note VOR checks/Oil and fuel in the notes on my flight log.

Our local flight folio has columns for, among others, fuel and oil and it is compulsory for these to be logged.
