Rowland,

In the Europa Flyer Issue 62 Sept.2009 Page 7, Jonathan Milbank wrote an 
interesting article called "Logging Hours"

I cannot vouch for the accuracy of it, but it would appear you may waste 
good engine hours by recording every moment the engine is running.

According to his article, for the purpose of technical logs, engine and 
airframe hours are the elapsed times between applying full power for the 
purpose of taking off until after the landing roll is completed.

Just a bit of food for thought ?

Cheers
Kingsley
