Glider pilot? Then can I recommend KFLog, a glider pilot flight logging program for KDE, at http://www.kflog.org/ .
For a general purpose Access-like database application, there's a number of programs out there such as Rekall and Knoda that give you a usable front-end to the various database back-ends. If KFLog doesn't meet your needs, follow up here and I'll give you more details on these and other options and fill you in on the whole database scene on Linux. John.
