Flight time is the time the plane is off the ground, just the obvious
Any pilot will tell you that. They all have to write down flight time
in a log book, and it sure as hell doesn't include time retrieving
luggage. Or sitting on your butt in the terminal. I started writing
down flight time in 1964.

So.....you don't consider the time spent at the airport as relevant? I
do, because it IS time, there is no time warp, and it is time taken
out of my day. Period.
There is a perfectly good phrase known as " trip time " which you
think is called " flying time ". It is not. You are plain ignorant.
Period.

I'm "ignorant"? First of all, you can quit being as ass and show me
where I ever differentiated between "trip time" and "flight time". It
will take five hours out of your life. Period. If you don't think the
time wasted is relevant, you certainly shouldn't be calling others
ignorant.

You didn't. That is what he is trying to get across to you.- Hide quoted text -

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.
