Is it me......a number of friends have commented jokingly about how i use my timekeeping estimates!
I flew approximately 1900 hrs over a few years and found myself being to the minute in order to calculate fuel/etc
I no longer fly but still tell people i will be at a venue/party/pub/work at times that include every minute in the hour
For example:-
When asked what time i will be in the office in the morning i said "about 0817", the bloke laughed until the following morning when by pure luck (i was travelling by train) i arrived at 0816 (by his watch), i had forgotton about the previous discussion and genuinely did not slow/speed up to make the time fit..
This is one example, but i use it rigidly and Mrs CM has now picked up on it and seems to question whether its just me or an aviation thing seeing as i never hear joe public using anything other than quarterly slots in the hour.
God hear me........ lets see where this discussion goes
