Help please.
UK Airline pilots logbook entry: If you taxi for purpose of taking off on an IFR flight, but have a tech problem (brake overheat) and returned to stand, do you log the time in your personal logbook, or can you disregard it?
This is important both ways.
1) I don't want to log time I'm not entitled to.
2) For FTL rules, I don't want to avoid log time I should !
It is down to interpretation of the rules;
However, my interpretation is that I taxied for the "PURPOSE" of making a flight iaw. all normal procedures, therefore I should log the time?
Qualified opinions please, (along with a source if possible) for any "official" clarification. Eg case law, CAA clarification, etc.
Many thanks in advance if you can help
