It's not about the bush time per se It's about the CP knowing he can trust you to:
Never write snags in the maintenance release and cop the CASA punishment if they catch you.
Take off just a teenie weenie bit overweight if it means winning the charter,
Conveniently disregard legal duty times if it means winning the charter.
Disconnect the tacho when he tells you to.

Havn't heard this one before, would make for some pretty interesting paperwork
What paperwork? It's VFR, it didn't happen

Most of the ones I flew didn't have tachos or air switches. In fact non of them did. You recorded the flight time with the timer on the ADF if installed, or your wheels off wheels on times.

Away from the wife and kids, knackered ageing aircraft, minimal support, stinking cargo, living in the middle of nowhere - I think I'm over qualified at the moment!

Thanks for the replies, believe it or not there's some pretty useful stuff there.
