You're a hard man Beagle! Are you predjudiced against those of us who learned in the states
(as much as I dislike it though, we have become decimalised here in the UK).
I know I do not record my times to the letter of the law, if anything i've lost a few hours or so by logging it as I am billed. ie on the Hobbs in the US and take off to landing plus ten at an international airport in the UK, but if my log book is ever audited, my times will tie up with records for the aircraft in question at the appropriate FBO/FTO so at least I am in keeping with the spirit of the law.
I could name a few pilots who have gained themselves a few extra hours in their log books purely by sitting in sequence or at the holding point due to heavy traffic.
Maybe it's more fool me for not doing the same.
