IF time is also only about 5-10% of total time for an IFR pilot. Anything above this is suspicious.
And what if the individual in question has done most of their flying in places that allow logging of all IFR PF time as IF?
What is the point of acutally inflating you IF time anyway? apart from licence upgrade requirements, I don't see any real marketable value in having more or less IF time. its irrelevant. IMO it's silly requiring pilots to count every minute in and out of cloud when in reality IFR is all heads down irrespective of meteorological conditions and further more, VFR above 20000' isn't even allowed.
