Damned right I didn't. Again, the friggin' time spent at the airport
is part and parcel. That time comes right out of your life. It's
absolutely silly to think that that time doesn't somehow count.

Damned silly to insist the the plane is in the air every minute that
you are away from home. Flying time is defined as the time the plane
is off the ground. Why don't you use the words the same way as the
rest of the world? Insisting the trip time is identical to flying time
will only get you laughed at. Go on, keep insisting that you are
flying your car from your home to the airport. Tell us how you are
flying that barstool while you wait for your flight. It's all flying
time to you, but nobody else. Pathetic. Airline pilots are only
allowed to fly 80 hours a month by the way. All that other time
included in trip time.adds up to the other 80, they do work a full
time job.
