Flight time (block time)

For aeroplanes, EASA flight time is measured from the moment the aircraft first moves to take off until it comes to rest after landing. It is the basis for logbook entries and licence requirements.

German term

Flugzeit (Blockzeit)

Logbooks record date, aircraft, departure and arrival, times, landings and function (PIC, dual, instructor). Accurate entries are required for revalidations, recency and licence upgrades.

For general information only. Always use official sources, your aircraft's flight manual and current national rules for flight decisions.
