The "authorities" (as you guys are referring to) are not responsible for your logbook and hours, they merely do a general check of the total when you declare your hours on every successive LPC. They cannot -and are not supposed to- check if you logged your PICUS as PIC or all your flight as PIC when you were acting as a F/O. They cannot check if you have added up incorrectly the totals on every page, or if you have added 15 minutes (by mistake) on a night total.
This is each pilot's responsibility, and even if you do log everything correctly, sometimes you apply to an airline governed by different rules (JCAB for ex) and they count them differently, so your log gets audited and you can explain all the differences. Thats it, and its not called fake hours. Experienced WB captains log their whole augmented crew flight as PIC when for some other regulator this is not supposed to be so.
Now, if you just got your T/R and after 3 months you present 1000 logged on this type, or you log PIC on a jet without having a PIC endorsement on your license, then someone had better notice!! And if they don't then they shouldn't be doing screenings, just open up a door and hire everyone that walks in first.
Our friend NegativeClimb is probably lying, and if not, he is referring to light aircraft hour logging that is not really important in the real airline world.
Nobody cares if you have 1250 instead of 250 in a C-152 just because you could afford the package. The higher the total in your log, the more important the quality of hours in it.
So don't make a big issue out of a rather childish post, it concerns entry level positions only.
Correct me if I am wrong
