Sounds to me like a major amount of cribbing/fudging going on...

The point I was trying to make was that unless you are 100% certain you can match up the aircraft you saw with the observations of others, you shouldn't log them. As me old mum used to say, "you're only cheating yourself"...
And EZYs and Flybes are so common that a) you can't be 100% sure of a match-up, and b) you could just 'walk away' and notch them up next time.
It's just not the true spirit of spotting (in my humble opinion)...
