In this neck of the wood there were a few folk that had very 'creative' logbooks when accruing time for a CPL. there were various ways, go to the US lose your logbook swear an affidavit saying it had 10k hrs in it when you lost it (how and if the CAA fell for this I don't know), Go to the US and 2 or three share some cheap time - all logging it as P1. Glider towing etc ...who knows how many hours you really did.
All good clean fun!
