    A paper log is easily taught but it'll never happen.

    maybe easily taught. but when you got to throw in a 34 restart somewhere 3 days ago or shave off 30 minutes from that 70.5 hours. then that becomes the problem. hammer down

    Still using a Paper log now. However, I work Regional in Ontario, Canada. EDL's Mandate isn't full compliance until June 2021.

    If i were solo I'd much rather prefer paper logs an i wouldn't be opposed to driving a pre eld truck to make it happen. However my wife and i run team now so we don't seem to ever lose out by running on eld.
