Converting Military Flt Time To Civ

[rmillsarmy]

Does anyone have a reference for converting military rotary-wing flight time to civilian flight time? It's my understanding that civilians log rotary-wing time differently than military.

There is an agreement between MoD and the CAA. For RN detail is hidden in FLAGOs somewhere, not sure about RAF or AAC.

See Appendix B to LASORS Section A pp 42-43.

LASORS Reference

That is exactly the reference I needed, thank you. Is this publication good only in the UK?

Yes - try the FAA if you are in the USA, and ignore LASORS.

Oh - that Washington! I thought you were in the UK.

The FAA accepted all my British Mil rotary time that was in my logbook as it was written when I did the FAA CPL H.

The average is when we fly for the Queen, we log take off/landing times (usually rounded to the nearest 5 minutes).

Flying civvy now, we log block times which (on average) add about 10 minutes or so either end for taxying.

If you fly 8 hour sectors then it's not very significant. If you fly 40 minute sectors then it's significant.

Dare I say, commonsense rules?
