My counter shows 307. However, my last 3 bush trips, over 12 hours, have only added 3 hours so it’s not counting properly. Other flights of an hour are showing just a couple of minutes. I have no idea how long it’s been counting incorrectly but I have a lot more hours than it’s giving me credit for.
Less than that 
Been doing this since day two of the initial release - just crossed 200 hours yesterday.

We all started with 0 hours. Every hour represents time experiencing and learning about some aspect of flight. I can’t believe the path I’ve been on, the 152 and bush trips, the 172 and learning about avionics and the incredible scenery (OMG how fast is this plane??). The Icon A5 for kicks and wet feet. Then the Bonanza, followed by the Baron. Do we dare do a jet? No, lets do a Turbo first. TBM? Yes, please! OK, we don’t crash too often in that, lets do a jet. CJ4 maybe. Fast? Fast?!!! How do you get it back on the ground?
Navigation, flight plans, RNAV, VNAV IFR, more acronyms…
OK, time for a big boy, how about a 747? We’ll try that. Nope, crashes very spectacularly, one and done, maybe later. The VisionJet, yay! The HondaJet yay!
What a long, strange trip it’s been… and more to come.
Blue skies, people…

My hours got wiped twice from playing on pc and also Xbox and having the Xbox on beta but not the pc.
I still haven’t hit 1000 hours yet… just cracked 800 so far.
Maybe it’s time to get B737, A320, CRJ and BAe-146 type rating

I was going on 1000 hours since 18 aug 2020. flew daily enjoyed each and every flight exploring the world and skies. from 27 july 2021 it went down to every other day mostly waiting and hoping for restorations. from 18 november 2021 basically stopped playing the game and have not completed one full flight.
I have had the sim for about two years and I only have about 600 hours logged
I have also noticed the other day that some of flights weren’t even logged. I did a 5 hour flight across Canada…. Nope didn’t even show up in the log book while a quick hop in the spitfire logged me 22 minutes…. Oh well.
Just over 400 here. My logbook got reset once. I also got around 500 in the alpha/beta, but they are gone

Oh forgot to say how many hours…. Around 2000 shown in the logbook but pretty certain I’m at well over 3000 by this point.
I’m just over 954 hours in the sim, most of which I’ve also captured in my LittleNavMap log.
Using a sqlite gui, I was able to query my LNM log to see how many hours per aircraft.
As you can see, a lot of my hours are in helicopters.
For other LNM users the query I’m using is:
SELECT
aircraft_name,
aircraft_type,
SUM(hours_flown) as total_hours
FROM
(select
logbook_id,
aircraft_name,
aircraft_type,
CAST ((julianday(destination_time) - julianday(departure_time)) * 24 AS REAL) AS hours_flown
from logbook
WHERE
departure_time IS NOT NULL
AND destination_time IS NOT NULL
)
GROUP BY
aircraft_name,
aircraft_type
ORDER BY total_hours DESC
;
I’ve also opened a feature request for LNM, hoping to get this query to be built in.

753 hours most of it in the WWII warbirds. I have had MSFS since it was released. I have probably lost 50 to 60 hours to CTDs. I am retired and fly a couple of hours almost every night. I have been flying flight simulators since 1984. I have 1000+ hours in both FSX and P3D and no telling how many before FSX. I like flight simulators.

After reading this thread and having my statistics all reset to 0 after the last update, I decided to make my own log-book app that runs independent of the sim and can’t be lost due to cloud syncing issues.
I am using SimFlightPath to automatically record all my flights to GPX files, so I wrote an app that reads these GPX files to keep a fully searchable logbook.
These files count flight time from when you start moving to when you stop moving (or end the flight). Therefore, it gives different times to both the sim logbook and sim Hobbs data.
It can only count the hours since I started using SimFlightPath, but it seems accurate in both time and detecting take off and landings. Mainly, it can’t be deleted by a buggy sim update.
I might put it on GitHub if I get time and anyone’s interested…

My logbook quit logging in Jan 2022 at 1370 hours. Fortunately, I have Little NavMap open nearly all the time and it logs flight legs and times automatically. There, it shows I’m around 2300 hours.
For the same reason as you (fear of losing my in sim log after reading about it happening to others), I started using LittleNavMap about a year ago to log my flights even though I don’t often use it for flight planning.
I spent hours and hours keying in flights manually into LNM log to get it caught up with my in sim logbook back then.
To me LNM logbook is now the one I care most about, it logs to a local sqlite database so I have it outside the sim and keep it backed up on a regular basis.
