Flight hours
EHM-0962 Zhen Yi:
hmm actually what they are just getting a thorough look at your data......and at the same time looking for answers to discrepancies.......nothing else or so i believe......quite a number of us like to analyse data and we know that :) so......please do not get offended! ;)
EHM-0962 Zhen Yi:
Anyway found another cheater, this one should be for sure as the flights are reported with different planes and with time difference of one minute for some.......and doesnt seem to be a calculation error as the times are 23.58 or 23.59, the maximum or close to the maximum that you can milk out of one flight with our current system.......
the id is : EHM-1383 (Ricardo Sargaço)
EHM-1199 Philip:
Ultimately, if we suspect foul play, without pointing a finger to aggresively we should be able to ask for answers. There is so much flexibility in EHM that the system can be abused but where it is obvious it should be picked up and warnings given. Frequent and repeated abuse should result in dismissal.
It seems as though we need to be careful as to how we question though, as surely folks are innocent until proven guilty.
Also, we should beware criticising just on the basis of flight hours. Further evidence is needed. When I started this thread it was with the observation that top performers for EHM in the first week had flown in excess of ten hours a day for the whole week. My own opinion is that if you are filing flights for EHM you should be flying - not clicking on autopilot and leaving the machine for hours on end as I suspect some do with the current checks.
Therefore, lower daily flight hours are more likely to be achievable and the reality. I wonder in a week that included over seventy hours of flight simming just how much of it was actually spent in front of the computer flying.
This is where I started the thread and no offence was meant by asking the question. Inflammatory language such as 'cheating' seems unecessary. Sure we want it to be fair but it does, as Rico points out, have to be fun.
Management work hard to create EHM as a web presence that enhances the experience and I guess if we take things too seriously we undo this.
I would say - don't leave Rico but accept the fact that whilst you maintain a regular high hourly rate people will occasionally ask questions. This doesn't mean you need to quit and to be honest in many VAs your current hourly rate would be impossible. Many require a booking system for flights and/or have a realistic daily max. as already discussed.
Take care and keep flying :8

I wonder why this didnt happen before EHM crashed... I guess its because we all had a start at the same time, therefore we really saw how much each person did.
I wont make any comments about Rico's flight hours, as I dont think we have enough evidence to say anything.
Just to say that people are very different, some have more and some have less time to fly, add management positions, or other time-taking things and you have a whole variety of people with different able flight hours, respect those differences, and we'll all be ok.
For those of you who might be cheating, or any of you that are thinking of doing so, I ask that you dont, this is for fun, dont try to get above the rest, what do you achieve? If we make a consensus, and get a general feeling for not cheating, we'll all be OK.
Cheers,
Alex;)
