I flew a flight from KATL to KMIA. (last Saturday I believe) I was having ACARS problems so I filed my flight report manually. It showed up in my log book as completed (at least I inyerpreted it that way as it had a duration of 2.0 hrs.) but I never received an approval of the flight. Now when I went in this morning I noticed the flight was gone.

Did I do something wrong?

Yes, and as I said, it indicated the correct flight time of 2.0 so I assumed it went through fine. Should I just resubmit the report?

Please do. Out of curiosity, what color was the entry? Green?

Cheers!

Aha! If it's green, then it's a draft Flight Report and NOT submitted. Every few days we run a cleanup task to nuke draft Flight Reports from the database. Please ensure that you don't just save the Flight Report, but SUBMIT it - it won't be green anymore. Look at the bottom of your logbook page to see the colors and the statuses.

Cheers!
